@skcaga6

It looks like the fence post is missing. Did you try other fences or is it just that one?

@skcaga6I think this is just how fences are in TS4. Unlike previous games, fence posts are not drawn automatically at intervals where there is one long stretch of fence. The game sees your example as just one stretch of fence. Of course in real life, there would be a post at each change of level, and every two tiles along the length too. This is a shortcoming that I think should be redesigned, but is actually working as (badly) designed

 

Later:  Ah, no I did manage to find one fence that has automatic posts at intervals.  And that does lose its posts on platform levels as you describe.

You can get the posts back if you use different color swatches!

Hmm, that's definitely a bit crazy and buggy!
