Can't Expand Room in Build Mode

[DirkSteele]

During the tutorial, when I click on the main hall floor, the grid turns green. When I drag the tiles I want to expand, nothing happens when I release the mouse button. I've tried reinstalling, and this does not help. No, I'm not selecting the top floor. The tutorial doesn't allow it. Deleting the rooms work fine, but I can't place or replace room tiles.

Had that problem too, then I realised I had to drag the new room to the outer side of the inn - if you select the main room and then a new one, there should be a green grid around the inn. You can place the new room there.

I'm having the same problem. I can't see the grid at all when either trying to expand or build. During sandbox I can build just fine. I think the campaign is bugged.

*Edit: I reinstalled the game and I could build/expand like normal in the campaign. Before I started my previous game I messed around with the settings, this time I didn't even look at them. Maybe something to do with settings then.

i just got the game a few days ago, and i am NOT experiencing this problem... i can place, expand and remove building tiles just fine in campaign. So what is different between your game and mine? I can only imagine two possibilities: either your game version is different or you are doing something different.

- I am in windows 10... if you are a mac or some other OS, you might not get updates at the same time, so that is a possibility... Also, have you verified the installation of your game files to make sure something didn't go wonky with the installation?

- I know this is a dumb question, but do you have the funds to build more? in the tutorial, you have thousands of $$$ to start with, but once your tavern burns and you have to start over, you are pennyless until you take out loans. at $300/building square, that gets expensive quick!

- Within the build mode menu, are you clicking the top left tab (left of doors), then clicking expand, selecting an existing room to expand, and then clicking an adjacent empty space?

I found that i could remove a room that has wall decorations, and could not place a new room in that space until i moved the wall decorations to a different room... maybe your issue is something like that?

Borrow the maximum you can (20,000 is it?) You could even find another bank (there are three of them) and borrow the maximum from all three, but one maximum loan ought to be enough.
