'Fixing' the Curious house -- help!

Finally got rid of the stairs, so I figured I'd share what I did. They're modular stairs ('Holey Smoke' things), and apparently the game treats each step as a separate object, which is why I couldn't delete the whole staircase, and why just forcing an error and resetting didn't fix it. I ended up doing a 'force error/delete' on each individual step, which finally cleared them out. Took some time, but the Curious brothers now have a two-story house which loads a lot faster. :)
I get the same thing. What I do is eyedropper one of the stairs, hover the bulldozer over a MIDDLE stair (doesn't seem to work on the top or bottom stair) and then click-doze through ONLY one or two stairs and poof, they're gone.

Interesting -- I'll try that next time I run into 'undeletable stairs'.

I've been having a weird problem in my Curious house. In the bedroom closest to the kitchen they can only access most of the bedroom by going to it from outside. They can go just inside the room from the inside of the house, but no further into the room. If I try telling them to go further they leave the room, go outside, and walk all the way around the house to get to the room from the door to the outside. If I try forcing them to use the inside door by moving or deleting doors they act like there's no possible way to get in or out of the room. It's like they think there's a wall or a fence surrounding the tile in front of the door. But I don't care about it too much because Vidcund ended up having twins and it made me lose interest in playing that house for some strange reason...

It's a diagonal door glitch. I had it happen, and fixed it by either deleting the door and installing a new one, or changing which way the door 'opens' (reversing the green arrow) -- I forget which, but it worked. Ultimately, redesigning that house to get rid of the diagonal walls and doors is a VGT. :)
Avalikia:
Well that's good to know, in case that ever happens again. But, like I said, I've lost interest in that house.
