How to build a stage?

Yeah I wonder how too.. I guess there's someone who can answer and help us! .

Something like it, yeah. I used that strategy, but it became quite a nightmare dealing with doors. For every new wall you add, it adds a foundation under it, so I had to put stairs on both side of every door, cuz you can't add a door to anything but a wall, and stairs must be on, or connected to a legit floor, so nothing under the foundation, which means to have a door, you must have a foundation-level floor connecting to the stairs. Became something of a mess. I wish there was a way to save a room's height. Then I could make rooms of all heights, and save them, and many cool things could be done.

The delete floors thing accomplished the goal, but left me with stairs everywhere. Also would be impossible to properly add stairs from the lower level to the next floor. I wouldn't be able to add a landing to a dining room in a 2-story house, or an outside deck (for a pool or something) if I had a 2-story house either, unless I had stairs to the raised area, leading the actual stairs to the second story in the house. Would be goofy.

And if I wanted to make only a certain part of the room lower, I couldn't, cuz there's no way to delete only a section of the floor, unless I make that part an enclosed room, delete the floor from that, then delete the walls from the temp room, and add stairs to the lower level. Tedious.

For a game where everything is too easy, it sure is hard to accomplish certain basic things. And why do no sims visit my new lot? It seems like no one will visit a General lot. They just walk by. If I added a bunch of (unnecessary) dining tables and chairs, I could make it a nightclub or a bar, but I already have 2 nightclubs and a bar in Newcrest. Would be overkill to make another. If there were a Get Drunk mod kinda like TS3, this wouldn't be prob.
