Classroom Design Project Training Video: Room Definitions and Key Room Properties
A room is a totally enclosed area defined by any combination of joined walls or railings, visible or invisible. To be recognized as a room by Chief Architect a room must have an unbroken perimeter.
Unless otherwise specified, rooms generate floor and ceiling platforms automatically. Most rooms are also automatically covered by the roof when one is built. There are exceptions to this, such as rooms defined as Decks.
If room is drawn within a larger structure and none of its walls connect to the exterior walls, either directly or indirectly by connecting to walls that do, the program will view this room as a separate building and unexpected issues may result. Connect such a room to the larger structure with an Invisible wall.
Room definition disappears if part or all of a surrounding wall is deleted. It is a good idea to finalize the position of walls before defining rooms with names and attributes such as floor height and ceiling height.
