Missing Building Option, Impossible to Place Corner Piece

Ran into the following problem:
I cant close a sloped roof corner on a Stormglass Building:

The only option to place a corner element is this:

The only solution to be able to turn the corner element and close the gap is to place a foundation beneath, but this would contradict the idea of a sloped roof/overhang.
I could also palce a basic wall element in that place but that would cause an ugly corner hanging out of the outside wall.

anyone found a better solution for this issue?

That’s due to stability since it does not have points to connect the two corners pieces do not connect to each other only walls and foundations/fences that’s why and that’s for all building type and tier

@Corspa, Beautiful, pc players are so lucky, please send a full photo of your building, it must be breathtaking. Still I have one question and I apologize if it is silly because my English are not so well and I don’t quite understand what you want. This building system doesn’t have inverted sloped roof pieces? You know, the triangles that are upside down.

Understnd what you write but I think it is a bug/mistake made by the programmers.

to compare it:

  • it is not possible to place it turned and linked to the upper and left wall, something that would actually give that piese more stability.

  • it is possible to place the piece with only a link to the upper wall, as shown on the screenshot. Something that should not be possible in case of stability reasons.

  • It is also possible to place a basic wall element to close the corner.

the last two options show that it cant be a stability issue but a missing placing option.

Can you not use the opposite slope piece to the one you have. It should snap in. I know it will look a little different but it should work.

The building is wonky sometimes, have you tried standing at a different angle from the wall? Or you could try putting a ceiling piece on top inside.

Tried both corner pieces, also different angles. Even removed different adjacent pieces before trying to place the corner piece.

Nothing worked.

Edit:

The ceiling piece option is something I have not tried yet.

One thing that did work for me. It’s not very practical though. If you put a fence foundation down attached to the building somewhere and then destroy it right away. Then go to the piece you want to place and see if it will snap in. Most of the time after I destroy a piece I can place a piece. Just a thought.

the thing is - inverted pieces attach to different piece than you think they do. This is where they attach to:

So other way it expects stable enough point here:

Thats why you won’t be able to attach something like that.

Sorry but that can’t be.

If I place a foundation beneath, then I can place the corner the way I need it to be and then too it will have no link on the right side. The foundation also adds no additional connections which the “wrong sided” corner did not already have or be linked too.

Will try later a few building options.

Just tired the ceiling piece proposal, does not work.

one more screenshot for clarification:

corner can be placed with a foundation beneath. If I remove the foundation, the corner also breaks off.

…

what I just found out

to be able to place corner #1 with this alignment, I need to place roof #2 and corner #3 first.

something is really fishy with the building system.

Last update make all building overlap.
so use a working sandstone, then overlay it with new piece should work?

Like I said that is the way it was made years ago cause they aren’t to snap together like that as it’s not intended but I honestly could care less about that but it doesn’t mean that they should not consider it but that one piece does connect like that but not the backs to each other

A ceiling piece at the overhang will work. It is the only way to get the inverted sloped wall to snap in the direction you want.

Try it in this order:

BTW this is an excellent example of where building order matters!!!

If you place the Stormglass Sloped Window BEFORE placing the Inverted Sloped Wall, the Inverted Sloped Wall won’t rotate into place in the direction you want.

You MUST place the inverted sloped wall BEFORE placing the sloped window.

  1. Ceiling piece overhang (gives stability for the inverted sloped wall)
  2. Inverted sloped wall
  3. Sloped glass window
  4. Everything else.

If you do 3 before doing 2, you’re stuck.

Will try that, thanks
