  • In apartments, University dorms, and penthouses: Walls and doors will now cut away properly in wall down/cutaway viewing mode. Adjusted checks for exterior walls and inactive units.

Fixed in Patch 1.109.185/1.98

I also still have this problem, but since the 01/31/2023 update, my doors no longer disappear and are permanently visible.

[HSY] Dorm doors stay visible when lowering walls

Steps: How can we find the bug ourselves? Go into build mode for a dorm (Tidal Towers or Drake Hall or whatever). Any door placing will not go down with the walls.
What happens when the bug occurs? Any door placed in a dorm will not go down with the walls down.
What do you expect to see? They used to go down with the walls. I'd like that back

Did this issue appear after a specific patch or change you made to your system? Neutral/Not Sure 

I am not sure when this started happening as I haven't played or built a dorm in a while. I suspect it is related to the problem with doors in apartments. In short, the doors are always visible even if all walls are down or partially down. Door frames as well. This makes it difficult to see parts of the building as there is now a door standing up in the middle of your gameplay when it didn't used to do that. 

 

Picture attached to show what I am talking about.

@Keijra Seems this is the same issue apartments have: https://answers.ea.com/t5/Bug-Reports/OPEN-CL-Apartements-Cutaway-view-shows-other-Apartement-Doors/... (minus the cutaway as there's no neighbors)

Keeping separate for now.

 

Since the door issue might actually be unrelated to the cutaway issue, I split it to it's own thread.

 

If you have the cutaway issue, please use this thread: https://answers.ea.com/t5/Bug-Reports/CL-San-Myshuno-Apartment-Walls/td-p/11671632

Re: [CL] [ECO] [HSY] Doors in Apartements/Dorms stay visible when lowering walls

★★★★ Novice

I have this same problem with doors. I've had the cutaway walls in apartments issue for quite some time, but since the latest patch I also have this doors issue. No doors disappear in apartments in walls down or half down mode, in live mode and in build/buy. I know it was this latest patch because I was playing in an apartment with no door issue right up to the patch.

 

I thought it was a cc/mod issue so I tried all the normal methods, removing all cc/mods, repair game, remove localcache etc. but it's definitely the game not me.

Im pretty sure this is buy design as it seems to be the fix for gigs (paranormal investigator and interior decorator) not having doors

If this is by design someone needs to try again because apartments are just horrible to play in now. Would not recommend City Living to anyone as it stands.
