So, I have a 5 floor house for 8 Sims and 2 pets, and I felt like adding roommates, but I didn't know how, so I looked it up, and it said about having enough beds for all the Sims in the house plus extra, but I think that's not working (see attached photo), and the option on the phone to postand ad was greyed out. My game is very heavily modded, so it's probably an issue with that, but I just wanted to see if anyone had any input? Thanks in advance

I've just gone in and taken out a few of the beds, but that still leaves 11 extra beds (you can easily get to them all). I even added an extra bathroom, and added a shower to the small downstairs bathroom, which is still 4 bathrooms.
I just grabbed some screenshots too:
The current lower basement arrangement
This is a spare room I already had, nobody was here anyway
The downstairs bathroom. I just added the shower, but the toilet and sink were already there
The two upstairs bathrooms
I added this bathroom on the top floor. There is an occupied bedroom up here, but I have space to make another. Since taking this screenshot, I have also added another laundry hamper to the bathroom.
*EDIT*
I also have this room here, it's not being used either, but it's still an extra bed.
I ran another experiment I filled my house with beds. On the above floors, wherever I found a space, I threw a bed down. I now have a total of 46 beds in my house on all floors.
I know believe I am destined to never have roommates.
Yeah, after I ran my two experiments, I did think the game just was not going to allow it. If anything. It's revenge for all the trauma the game's been put through
Ah, I forgot about that I will try that next time I'm on

Also another tip I've found from playing with roommates is that if they complain, just right click on them and cheat needs and you'll get a message saying they're happier now and won't move out
I think with your bug it's most likely due to the amount of people in the household, try playing with a smaller household and then seeing if it lets you add roommates and if it does that's the issue
I didn't really want them for any reason other than something new to try out, but if I feel like trying it on one of my other saves, I'll defo keep those in mind
Just for a quick update, I decided to use the bedrooms I made in lower basement for the group of triplets I have who just aged up to children. Keeps them out the way
They have a mod that removes the limit. However, it might be interfering with the roommate check, which sees that there are 8 sims and says no, despite the fact that they already have more than 8 in the household and can have more if they want.
If I decide to try it on a smaller save, I'll keep it in mind As mentioned, I threw the children down there. It's a lot more peaceful upstairs
I don't think MCC would effect that unless it hasn't been updated.
The issue has been sorted out, but thank you for your input.
