[FIXED] Objects Drop or Go Missing on Half Walls

1. When you build a structure that includes interior room(s) formed via 2 or 3 half walls connected to the exterior wall and place wall objects on both sides of the half walls, the objects may (apparently randomly) drop in height upon placing the build from the Library or Gallery.  See this example on the Gallery.  In the image below, ivy originally placed near the top of the wall (at the same level as the ivy still up there, has dropped down after saving the build, bulldozing, and replacing it from the Library.

Note that object placement was done with bb.moveobjects OFF - the objects are legally positioned and not in evident conflict with other objects.  Also note that the problem seems to occur only when the half wall(s) are joined to a wall in a room type configuration.  A freestanding half wall does not seem to be subject to object dropping.

 

2. Objects may also drop (or disappear) even if there is no corresponding object on the other side of the half wall.  See this example of toilet paper going missing in a café restroom.  When you place the lot, you will notice that most of the bathroom stalls have toilet paper placed on the right wall.  Originally, there was toilet paper on each wall.  You can place toilet paper in the correct locations again, save the build, bulldoze, replace the build from your Library, and you will see that some of them go missing; it appears to be random as to which ones.  Note that I was also able to duplicate the issue by creating my own structure designed in the same manner: 1) draw a 6x5 room, 2) use the wall tool to divide it in half, 3) using the tallest half walls, further subdivide each half into 1x2 "stalls", 4) to each stall, add a door in and a toilet placed against the opposite (exterior) wall, 5) add toilet paper to the right of each toilet at approximately toilet height, 6) save the build to the library, 7) bulldoze the lot, 8) place the build from the library back onto the lot, 8) review each half wall for toilet paper - some will be missing.
