Why roofed area is unroofed ???

[Veronica]

I am a newbie,and tried to make my first shelter in semi mountain.Half was outside and the other half I was expanding the inside of the mountain.Couple of roofs fell of at first so I added columns and added add roof area to all of my shelter but its saying it is unroofed ?
When ı toggle roof visibility and I see mostly green and a dark green where the inside of the mountain or whatever is.

Maybe nobody had time yet to build that roof?

Is it a sealed room? The edge of the map does not work for enclosing a room, if any part of a room touches the map edge it becomes "outside."

If a single tile is unroofed then the room is going to be listed as "unroofed (1)" letting you know one roof tile is missing. You say it's "mostly green" but make sure every tile is built.

Otherwise a screenshot with the roof overlay enabled might help people figure it out.

Does any part of the enclosed room NOT show green or dark green? If the entire room isn't roofed, it's "unroofed". Don't quote me on this, I'll have to dig around to confirm, but I THINK a certain % of unroofed tiles are allowed and it'll still be considered "indoors", but the description will say "indoors, unroofed ( # )".

I have a ss and I guess I needed to add you to message the image so I sent a friend request

every tile looks roofed but when I come to area it says unroofed in the right bottom corner.Temps are fine too,its not like there is a leak of air it seems but still it says unroofed.

You can just paste screens in the forum here, I'm assuming this is the one:

There are two tiles near the upper left under the column that are unroofed. Your builders might be busy doing other jobs so you can select them and right click on those empty tiles to force them to build the roof there if it has been assigned to be built there.

I tried to drag the pic from ss manager and local file but it didnt work so idk how pasting works,and they didnt do it bcz it seems I didnt ordered to do so.I was so focused on the mountain side because the said roofs fell from there first I guess I just never even dared to look a bit to left.Ty for second sets of eye.

Click on the screenshot, click "view comments and details" to open the full page for it if you aren't already there, right click on the outside of that page (not on the image) and select "copy page URL" then paste that into your message to share screens here.

No problem.

try to put a 'build roof area' zone over the space with a missing roof

I made a room that was too large across for the walls to support a roof in the center of the room. I had to build some walls in the center of the room to support all of the roof. This was not clear and I had to solve the puzzle.

You don't need to build walls in the center of the room to support a roof. As someone above already mentioned, the game has columns that can be used for that. The difference between a column and a wall is that the latter blocks movement.
