This guide will help you use platforms to upgrade your home or community lot and add new depth to your Sims 4 builds. You can easily rebuild it, but it's worth adding platforms first so you don't have to redecorate your walls. RELATED: The Sims 4: Snowy Escape: All The Simmies (And Where To Find Them)

Once the platform is installed, you can adjust the length and width the same way you would any other piece, while the height is adjusted by the small arrow to the left. The arrows just below the raise platform text are always visible, even if you are not using platforms. These platform adjustment buttons are always visible and if clicked without a platform selected, they will lower or raise the whole room, without affecting the foundations. Decoration platforms

Once your platforms are placed, you can add flooring on top of them as well as use the new platform trim tile, which can be found by clicking the bottom icon below the semi-trailers. walls on walls and empty rooms section. In the image above, the two lowest platforms function as steps, while the others require a small staircase. Platforms can go up to one step from the ceiling and can be connected to the upper floor, but you must use only one step to do this or your sims won't go up even if there is headroom to do it. Also worth noting that you need to decorate all the lower platforms before connecting the final step, as this step seems to prevent you from placing the floor on the upper platform.

Restrictions

When you place platforms, any walls you place against them start at ground level. This way you can create unique styles and even use platforms to create mezzanines. Due to the size difference between a Child Sim and an Adult Sim, this means you can use a platform to create a space that adults cannot enter, although they can converse with a child on a platform, as long as they can get close enough. Although you can't use the space under the platform, it's a great way to add unique areas to your terrain. Other uses of the platforms

Another use for platforms is to create small raised or sunken areas in rooms. Komorebi uses rigs, so for Simmers with Snowy Escape, it's worth checking them out for ideas. As always, the Simming community will find new and exciting ways to use any new building feature, so be sure to search the gallery for more ideas and truly unique ways to use the platforms.
