Also, It's possible to save lots when using in-game mode to the lot bin. They can be replaced on any lot that's the same dimensions or larger, but the terrain levels will still apply. So only really useful for flat lots.
It is not recommended that you place a binned lot in a location with larger dimensions than the original, because there are no options to adjust the alignment of the lot, so everything will be placed smack in the center and the paths will no longer be connected to the street, etc. Plus, it's irreversible: Once you do it, the lot is permanently embiggened, and there is no way to move the house onto a smaller lot, even if the edges are unused.
Zazazu:
Best off working from a floorplan or making your own floorplan, then. For my terrain, most of the lots are so small that I've been building exactly to the constraints of the lot. For my 9x9 three-bedroom, two-bathroom model, I did a floorplan so that I can use it as a base on other lots. Especially since it seems that somebody's hack is intent on giving me a new family each time I build a lot, so I'm always stuck with one homeless townie family.

Question: Can you connect/snap two bridges together?
I would like to know that too, if I could even find them. I found ones from WA, but I can't find the one I think ingelli used in a screenshot from this thread, was that a bridge from Riverview?

Is this the one you mean? Looks like it might be the bridge from China. The Riverview bridge is reddish brick, IIRC.
I still haven't even been able to get a bridge to connect to a road, let alone connect two bridges together.
Lion:
So no, two bridges can't be joined.
Sims can't go through.
I had to build a road section in between to connect them all. Then sims can go through. But it doesn't look pretty, and the terrain forming is a huge pain:
nanacake, this is "large chinese bridge". Type "bridge" in the filter in "Matadata", and you get all the bridges. For the life of me, I can't get Riverview in the tool/game. It will be nice to have one more bridge.

Use advice from this thread. Pull the dark blue square close, sometimes touching sometimes not touching, it depends. when they snap together/connect, dark blue squares turn to light blue or green ones.
Medieval town builders out there, have you used the "Ruined Wall"? The "Short" and "Tower" can be used to make castle walls. I have a question. If you have used them, do you need to paint sim-non routable (blue) under them? The same question for other large world objects, such as the mines, Asian city wall, pyramid stuffs, etc.
