    Which build mode feature do you want to return? I know these requests are popular, but looking at the rate we get new content, it‘s quite unrealistic we‘ll get all of the features below.

      Spiral stairs
      You had to know that Spiral Stairs was going to get a majority vote besides curved things. I'd have left them out based on that knowledge alone. In all truthfulness besides the spiral stairs I want in this order

      1. Paint the ceilings
      2. The Pond Tool
      3. Curved walls etc.
      4. Separate Handrails
      5. Changing the light color and intensity in build mode

      I have a few honorable mentions

      1. Hail
      2. Holiday Festivals (Haunted House, Bobbing for Apples, Face Painting, Eating Contests)
      3. Changing fireplace & torches flame colors
      4. Hotels
      5. Vacation Houses
      6. Greeting Styles

      You should have added an ALL option.

      Painting the ceilings. It's the only thing that drives me nuts when I'm building, playing and taking screenshots :D

      There is cc ceiling tiles, works fine for playing and screenshots, but in building mode they block the view cause they are not transparent from above :(

      I'm not a builder, so I don't care about any of those, tbh.

      I only care about painting the ceiling. I NEED that! Sure in real life most ceilings are white , but for some reason, in the Sims, white ceilings are jarring sometimes when doing darker or more rustic builds.

      Pond tool
      while I am thankful for the place ponds in the game, the pond tool made my parks SOOO MUCH BETTER. I've been using pools with oodles of plants and rocks added to them to make them look like ponds and to smooth out the edges when I want something to look cute, but having a sim swim in a pond looks kinda silly, and with all the stuff I have to add to make it look real, my game crunches to a halt and the lot often becomes unplayable...

      Pond tool
      All of these would be nice but at this point a water tool is the main thing I want to see added for build mode followed by curved walls for pools.
      Sims 4 went from "You Rule" to "One of the stories we want you to tell"

      Seperate handrails
      Separate handrails unless my sims could swim in ponds, in which case, pond tool please.
      Happy simming!

      For me the change lighting options in b/b mode would be the most useful one. Though I really want ponds too..

      Pond tool
      I miss not being able to have ponds in the gardens or in parks like in sims 3. It was great when they froze and your sims could go skating on them. It was the one of the few things I’ve noticed when I started playing sims 4 2 years ago that, zodiac signs, newspapers and landline telephones.

      Spiral stairs
      Wow. All. It was especially hard to decide between curved walls and spiral staircases, but I guess I've wanted the stairs longer?

      Curved walls/ curved pools, curved fountains
      Also to be able to make a natural pond; the pool rim disrupts the esthetical look of it as of now, and I do not use the move objects on cheat.

      Pond tool
      I know pools sort of serve as ponds now (and fountains, too, after that redesign), but I wish I could make real ponds without having to throw down a huge one from the hidden objects. The pool tool feels so stiff to build with and the pool trim is such an eyesore when you are trying to build something like a pond.

      My top votes go to ‘paint the ceilings’ and ‘change light in build mode’. However at this point we should have all of them back.
      Was curved walls ever a thing though, outside of them being objects?

      Curved pools were in TS3. I think Paralives will have curved walls..

      Yeah if they reintroduce curved pools they might as well bring something innovative such as curved walls with it.

      Sims 3 Roaring Heights had windows that resembled curved walls, so it has been considered already.

      Paralives has curved walls and they‘re an Indie developer.
