Hi, my sims unable to knock the door on their neighbour house,happen after the patch update ,may 2017, i play vanilla,i build my own houses, i travel trough map, the neighbour were at home,my sims cam only peek from outside, i click the wall,fences,patio,roof and ground but there's no option for knocking the door.but this bug only appears for houses that have basement or if the front door placed on the upper level of the building, example I build a boat house above the pool or above the ground or a tree house

Is there more than one door on the lot?
I built a house for an NPC family and when I moved them in, I found that I couldn't knock on the front door. I looked around and apparently the game thought that the back garden gate was the front door and I could knock on that.
So I went back into build mode and deleted the back gate so that the only door was the front door. That solved it for me.
The other option is to choose to play the NPC family for bit. While you are controlling them you can click on the door and choose the "set as front door" option. I don't know if that sticks as the door you chose if you make them unplayable again.

Were you able to knock on these before ?
The trouble is that you can't set a door in basement or second floor as front door hence you can't knock.
Just curious if that was an issue before.
Good Luck

I build a house underground , its just a stairway lead up to the surface . the door is at the bottom of the steps.. when the new neighbor came over to say hello they didn't knock on the door they just stood there waiting on me... I do have a pic though

@crinrict I can't speak to the behavior pre-patch because this runs into more of a live mode issue, and I don't really play my families such that they go out visiting others (they stay at home to test my builds, and that's it :P). However, I can confirm that currently, doors placed on upper levels or on the basement level cannot be "set to front door" and cannot be knocked on.
