I’m facing an important issue with my mega city construction project. Many of the buildings I’m creating require 45° sloped roofs, both tile and wooden types, but the roof pieces currently available in the game only come in different angles.
This greatly limits the building possibilities and makes it difficult to create more realistic structures, especially in old English and European architectural styles.
A set of 45° roof pieces would make a huge difference in architectural variety and would allow for much more detailed and harmonious constructions.
My question is: were these 45° roof pieces originally planned to already be part of the construction set but ended up delayed due to technical issues or other problems? Or are they only planned for a future update, supposedly arriving in around 6 months as mentioned by the devs?
I’m asking because I need to decide the direction of my project. If these pieces are truly planned for the future, I may need to pause the project and leave some buildings unfinished while waiting for the update. However, if these pieces are not coming, I’ll need to redesign and rebuild a large portion of my current structures to adapt the roofs to the pieces currently available in the game.
Taking this opportunity, I would also like to leave a suggestion: it would be amazing to have a system where players could freely define the angle of roof pieces.
Instead of each roof model having only a few fixed angles, the ideal system would allow players to purchase a roof type — such as tile, wood, or stone — and then manually adjust the slope according to the needs of the build, choosing angles like 13°, 26°, 30°, 45°, 64°, and others.
This would massively increase creative freedom, remove many architectural limitations, and make the building system far more versatile for large and detailed projects.
