Positives
-lots of stair shape opportunities
-easy to use
-can easily be added to existing builds
Negatives
-can't configure stairs 4 or more tiles wide
-cannot create T shaped stairs without using 2 separate staircases, causing issues with railings
-cannot create grand sweeping stairs due to the set position of the angles (i.e let us have shallower stairs over a greater length without removing an angle...i know what I mean, i'll try to get a pic to explain xd)

- The stairs do auto-generate walls underneath (I was worried they wouldn't).
Negatives:
- Stairs still make friezes disappear on interior walls.
- Railings/posts still clip interior walls and show when they shouldn't.
- Still can't remove a single auto-wall beneath a staircase, the entire staircase has to be open.
- Still can't stack open stairs in a room without a floor (this is somewhat an issue with being unable to remove floor tiles one by one).
Overall, I think it's a really good tool. I would like a few more tweaks, though.
Also, since the update, I lost the ability to create foundations. The foundation slider is gone. Is anyone else having this issue, or is it maybe just me?
Seems like they are pretty versatile. I do wish could go up multiple floors while stile connected though. I am having fun messing around with them.
Overall, I love the stairs. I’m gonna need to go build some more to see how they work properly, but they certainly add to the fun factor (that’s as far as I got for now lol)
My childhood!!
Wow... I might have to steal your idea xd
Can’t place plants or clutter on the base they create in the middle😔
Problem solved. Apparently I just needed to quit/restart game again. Not sure what happened on the first startup but, my foundation slider option is working just fine again. So.... happy camper here lol.
Making T stairs (side by side stairs where the left set bends to the left and the right set bends to the right) isn’t possible with railings. Each set will have its own railings the whole way up.
We should be able to customize railings by setting them on each side of the stairs independently...though that still may not solve this issue.
After playing with it a bit, I figured out that for me it may just be easier to build the stairs and then the house around it. I was able to place two next to each other to achieve the multiple floors look. I may have just made it more difficult, but does anyone know of an easier way?
This!
The uneditable railings annoyed me pre-update now they're even more annoying! Hopefully this gets updated soon. Fingers crossed
Adding to that.... It seems you can't have stairs leading up to, or from, the platform created by the L-shaping stairs either.
Hope they come up with a fix for this.
Also adding a wish for the ability to only add railings to one side of a staircase. But I don't think it will happen.
That is great!
I've always had a problem with doing stairs in a completed home. I usually get around this by building the house, but doing the stairs before the floorplan. Or if I do the floor plan, I temporarily delete the rooms around the stairs until they are completed. That may help?
