Ambitions: What's borked
Tempo:
Never happened before I installed Ambitions. Plus it's not a question, just a comment about something new and weird in the game.
Claeric:
Ah, I remembered a BIG one!
Without constrainfloorelevation turned off, that is to say with nothing at all altered, I am experiencing non-flat walls.
Sometimes when building (only on one house, so far), I will get a wall that is just plain not level with the rest. As a result, the rest of the walls on that side of it are lower than those on the left. I end up with places above the walls where floor tiles cannot be placed, rooves cannot be placed, etc.
Similarly, go check out the consignment store in Twinbrook. You'll note that towards the center of the front, there's a dip in the wall. Going up all 3 floors, there's a dip. You can see it on the fence at the top, easily.
This is pretty disruptive to building and can be very hard to fix (properly, at least. Turning off CFE and flattening works fine, but can cause issues.).
TGallo:
I have an issue, my sim, any sim, can not use the sculptor station or inventing station. Can't even click on the sculptor station. And the inventing station they can go to but when I click dabble, nothing happens. They have scrap. Also I do not have the class at the science lab. please help.

Have you taken out all of your mods? Without any extra info I'd guess one of them is conflicting for some reason.

Speaking of contrainfloorelevation... It annoys me that you can't attach a garage to a house with a foundation without tricking the system. I mean, I've got it figured out now but I shouldn't have to do it. Plus the trick leaves one wall that slopes down to the foundation which is just ugly.
And I know the lot designers for ambitions know their system sucks because one of the house has an attached garage... but it is only a garage on 3 sides with foundations under all the walls of the garage and lacking a a garage door. Why? Because they designed it so you couldn't have 4 sided garages attached to a house with a foundation.
