Any way to add or mod in a 5th basement level?
« on: October 07, 2013, 07:29:30 PM »
Just curious if there is any way to do this as it would help on a house concept i'm doing. Positive it would have to be a mod if it's even doable.

What I'm trying to do is have a fairly large totally underground house with the first 2 levels containing rooms, stairs, etc.  and the 3rd level mostly open with a  2-3 square wide walkway completely around it overlooking the indoor pool on the bottom level.

Currently doing this on the 2nd level with the pool on the 3rd level but it isn't as impressive since it also has rooms which spoil the effect somewhat. (No way to put in a pool on the 4th level unless you can add a 5th.)

Only building I have on the lot up top is a very small house covering the entrance stairs. Trying to do a theme with a lake and park on the surface and with stuff the townies and I can use. :)

(World is Hidden Hollow and the lot size is 64x64)

Going slow as I'm not using any cheats to make this but will get it done.

Any help will be appreciated, even if to say it's not possible.

To be totally honest, I am completely unsure how deep basements go!  ::)

The last time I checked I *thought* they could go down 5 levels, but if you're saying you've tried already and it only goes down four then there's nothing I can think of that might expand that limit, there might be a building cheat for it.

I thought it was five because you can build five levels up, I think.

Man I don't build much. Let me boot up my game and I'll come back with significant answers!

Thanks! It only goes down 4 as it said it was at the limit when I tried to add another one. I also don't build too much but wanted to make the lot into a nice park-like setting but also be able to live in it. (Or under it.)

I like the idea, but yes, it was limited at 4 levels beneath. Unfortunately there doesn't seem to be a way to go deeper as far as I know. I have not seen any mods or any building cheats for it as far as I can tell. I hope someone else can chime in so you don't have just MY findings, especially since I'm usually not building that often.

Question, have you tried moveObjects on cheat? That's all I got though.

If you use the tips on this page for using a foundation as a basement, you might be able to get a fifth basement level.  I've never tried before since I rarely use basements.
