House exterior ?bug

Hi there :)

Just noticed the real estate listings have gone back up and was thrilled to see my house again (1127 Lowland Track). The weird thing was, although it looked the same on the inside (great house interior!) the outside has now changed, and the exterior is the same as another style of 7 k firebog house. So is impossible to tell the difference on the outside. Is this a 'bug' or an intentional change? The old exterior was much 'glitchier', very curvy platform as I remember leading up to a entrance door at the top of the building. Or maybe 2 platforms with the second one leading to the front door at the top...but either way, not as it looks now! I noticed that this seems to be repeated throughout Shimla anyway, none of that exterior style left.

  • Can you link to all the examples you were looking at?

  • Really not a bug I don't think though it bugs me too. The realty page has never (that I've seen) depicted the awesome variety of exteriors the bog houses offer. Door-to-door shopping/hopping is a must! :D

  • Ok Kevbob just going to find some links. I wish I had a pic of the old outside of my house, but I don't think I do - only lived there for a couple weeks!

    Here goes:
    My old house: http://beta.glitch.com/realty/LA94V95NKOA2PHB/
    Well it was identical to this on the inside but the exterior looked different - spiral ramp up to top level door.

    Another house on my old street which always had this exterior (it is different inside but costs the same as my old house)
    beta.glitch.com/realty/LA94...
    Another house on my old street which was identical to mine inside and out (friend bought it) but now also has lost the original exterior:http://beta.glitch.com/realty/LA94VV5NKOA2U5T/
    As I can't find our street in locations, I can't see if the exterior has changed on the street itself or just in the listings.
    As I look through the bog listings I can't see any of our kind of exterior there anymore. They seem to have been replaced with this other style. Both houses cost exactly the same although IMO my house was better inside! Might be cause of confusion.

  • This isn't a bug per se,but it does appear to be an error: on many of the Alakol houses the exterior doesn't seem to match up with what you  find on the inside,for example the house I used to have -> looking at the outside of the house the front door is on the right side of the building,but when you're inside,the front door appears to be on the left side of the building,another example would be that from the outside there looks to be a window in an upper floor,but again that does not 'match up' with what we see on the inside.

  • Hi Kevbob 

    You seem to have abandoned this thread although the issue isn't fixed!! 

    I just have a small update, on the actual streets the house type I have described does have the correct exterior, is just in the listings.

    However, as I bought one of these houses before reset and did not notice this issue until after reset, I am certain that the realty listings used to reflect the correct exterior! However...I've been wrong before lol. For the largest style of bog house it certainly looks as though those exteriors were never portrayed in the listings.

  • Violet, we just don't have an easy solution for this currently, and may not for some time until we rework how some of our tools are built that present this information.
