All objects/functions pertaining to building.
The Sims has currently lost its identity. Bring it back for TS5

The object I would like is an invisible ceiling light - just the light - nothing else to see.
I wish we could also get glass walls and rooflines, for sunrooms and conservatories and such!!
I would like doors that when you select them as the "Front" door, they stay as "Front" door. Currently, there seems to be an issue with enclosed porches and decks, in fact lets just say I would like to have all build items work as they should, without the glitches.
Variable wall heights and foundations in the same building.
Hipped roofs with proper overhangs.
Lots that aren't all completely flat.
Window and door sets with matching colors, seeing as there is no color wheel or way to clone textures easily.
Counter height "Let there be light and let there be more light" windows. Sure, there are other windows that are counter height but it would be nice to be able to use one window style throughout a house.
That's just a few build items off the top of my head.
Yes, I suck at making roofs. Would like this back.

Being able to set different rooms with different wall heights, or have two different foundation heights in one lot.
More roofs. Octagonal, maybe rounded? The more, the merrier!
I also hope they can figure out how to get curved walls working properly.
It would be absolutely wonderful if they patched in a staircase tool. The ability to connect staircases to the wall so we could create beautiful sweeping grand staircases that swept in smooth curves, or platforms/landings so we can create those space saving L-shapes, half-landing, or stair-step staircases as I refer to them... with multiple landings between floor levels. It would also be great if we could narrow and widen staircases. Then there would be the option to create the spirals that we desire to have especially in tiny spaces.
Other tools... the ability to create landings. The foundation would disappear while the walls extended down to the ground, while keeping the foundation in place on the outside. It would also be great to have the ability to place windows below the foundation line. I enjoy creating builds that have landings, but have the hideous foundation in my living spaces is quite annoying.
Another tool that would come in handy is the ability to create lofts/attic spaces with angled/slanted ceilings. And it would also work wonders if we could place multiple window types on the same panel of wall. Even with the moveobjects on cheat... the wall still bleeds into my windows.
And although it isn't a tool... we need tons more doors and window types that isn't directly traditional and directly modern. There's really only three to four different types of architectural styles to choose from- Traditional, Modern, Contemporary, and Spanish Colonial. I want some French, Dutch, Roman, Gothic Revival, and Mediterranean influences and it's so hard to achieve that style using objects that are not associated with those styles.
I'm with you on the lofts and roof rooms! I've tried putting these in my house and they just don't look as good as they did in Sims 3. They work but I think the Sims 3 lifts and attics looked better when playing the game.
