Better attic rooms

Although you can build rooms in attic spaces, I wish it were developed more. Roofs could cut-away when the walls are down in more attractive ways, and the build options could be expanded. Roof sections should be hollow and considered inside space, for example, and we could have a wall type that doesn't go through the roof, just to the roof line, so we can build rooms inside better. Some roof windows would be great too.

    YES! Oh and actual drop down ladders that we can click to lower in order to save space like real homes!! You could have man caves up there or just use it as a storage space :smiley:

    @Jakester4x4 That's a good idea for compact houses. I'm also picturing bedrooms, or TV rooms up there. All kinds of things. It would make building bungalows much easier too.

    @Okto84 Thanks! Yeah I honestly think this would make so many builders excited if it were to ever be introduced into the game! :smiley:

    I would love that. I've been asking them for that for so long. I love attics, because I want to make secret attics. Also I'd love to make artistic ateliers on attics.

    I've been asking them for so long attic ladders that drop down like American style.

    Yes! I would love it if they would add a ladder like that to get to an attic!

    I was looking for this post for hours! Or maybe even weeks. I feel so tired of building boxes with white ceiling, which disappears while playing game and that's just strange. I want attics, normally functional attics, not just 'moveobjects' space under the roof, where roofs are visible while playing, or the same boxes surrounded by roofs. I have a strong feeling, that having attics, would change things for many players: for builders, for storytellers and everyone else. There are basements, but no attics. It's like having moon, but no sun. :|

    Also some better roof options would be appreciated because if you use the octagon room you can't roof it properly and similar issues come up with building walls your own way that arent square or rectangle.

    This would come in handy in my game. Especially now that my "attic" is used for 2 bedrooms. I'm playing the goth household and Mortimer became a elder so I wanted Bella to have 1 more kid before Mortimer dies. We ended up with girl triplets. Going to be a fun ride especially since we are trying to get a profitable restaurant going at the same time.
