Can't change slope angle of Mansard roof?
nocomment:
Ok, I'm trying to make a roof similar to this. Notice the slope.
I use the cheat to set the angle to 75. On the left are some sample roofs I did. On the left is the Mansard roof as I'm pulling it. It's nice and steep.
I let it go and it is a regular 45 degree roof.
I change the angle to 15 degrees. The Mansard roof is still 45 degrees.
What am I doing wrong?
cassandra:
I think that the mansard roof will keep the angel necessary encompass as many floor tiles as were created when you first made the roof. Have you tried to change the main roof elevation?
Hook:
Enter the cheat:
individualroofslopeangle 75
Then with one of the roofing tools selected, hold down the control and alt keys and click on the roof. It should set it to 75 degrees, or whatever you specified in the cheat. I haven't tried specifically with that particular type of roof, but I've used it a lot.
Try it on a "normal" roof to get the feel for how it works, and make sure you're doing it right.

Oh, the giggles.
Disclaimer: I didn't know that the flat-topped roof was called a Mansard roof. I'm also right-left dyslexic (spatial organization learning disability, but low-grade so it's all good).
I was doing my whole "I write with my right hand, so this must be my left" thing and looking at the pictures. Well, the roof on the left looked okay. Took me quite some time to figure out that the Mansard roof is on the right in the picture. Doi!

I don't think you can actually change the angle on the mansard roof because of the roof tiles. When you have placed the roof it is possible to put a staircase leading up to there through the attic.
