Got a weird problem with my build. I have a strange "wall" (I think) coming out at an angle from a 2nd story. This second story is sitting atop 3 stacked frieze foundations that make up the first story. the "angled wall" is starting at one tile out from the building on the floor of the 2nd story and the roof of the 1st story. The angled wall goes up to the top of the second story and ends at 3-4 tiles out from the building. I have tried to hammer delete it. I have quit and not saved. When I look at it from the side view and back view, it disappears, but from front view it is there.

Any suggestions? I am pretty sure the lot is still usable and the wall is not evident in all angles or pictures.

did you use CFE at all?  try going somewhere across this and create a small square at the exact same hight of where that wall begins ( the lower bart of it )  then with the level terrain tool go to that floor , start from a corner and drag all the way to the square you just build making sure you  are passing over this . All i can think off is that ...maybe a grid line went berserk while using CFE, and accidentally a floor tile was placed over it . If it's not that I have no idea what else it might be

I tried CFE and mallet to no avail.   SimEve also suggested.  Decided to rebuild on another lot using my old lot as a reference.  Have thought of some neat ideas since I started building that I couldn't incorporate unless I put them in at the beginning of the build so I decided to do that.  Hope I get it done by Wednesday evening.

I have heard of this from people using the placefrieze cheat. If what Geminia said doesn't help, try dragging a new wall or floor across this object, and once it is there, then delete the whole thing and see if that gets rid of it.
