Product: The Sims 4
Platform:PC
Which language are you playing the game in? English
How often does the bug occur? Every time (100%)
What expansions, game packs, and stuff packs do you have installed? All
Steps: How can we find the bug ourselves? Create a basement and attempt to place the Dead Hawthorn Tree anywhere above it.
What happens when the bug occurs? You cannot place the Dead Hawthorn Tree above the basement.
What do you expect to see? The tree should be able to be placed above the basement.
Have you installed any customization with the game, e.g. Custom Content or Mods? Never used.
Did this issue appear after a specific patch or change you made to your system? Neutral/Not Sure
Brought to my attention here, the Dead Hawthorn Tree from the Vampires pack cannot be placed on ground if a basement has been built below it. It is as if the object's footprint extends below ground.
Workaround: place with the bb.moveobjects cheat turned on.
Solved! Go to Solution.
