'''Proper Support:''' Especially important when building on foundation or when building multiple floors, walls or fences cannot be placed on areas that are not supported by the floor below, either by walls or by columns. When placing flooring, there is a restriction as to how far out beyond the support below is allowed. If building off of a straight wall below, 2 tiles outward from the wall may be placed without requiring more support below. Note that these rules do not apply if building above an already-enclosed room. However, placing floors on top of a column and then deleting the column will not remove the placed floors. This is because the game does not check whether a floor is supported by something once it has been placed down. Using this method can make suspended or even hovering futuristic houses.
'''Indoor-Outdoor Placement:''' Some objects, like landscaping objects and trees, can only be placed outside on the terrain without the use of [[cheats]] or [[Into the Future]]'s soil rugs. Other objects cannot be placed outside and must be inside a structure. In ''The Sims'' and ''The Sims 2'', objects such as pools must be placed on the ground and not on a foundation, even if the pool is indoors. In ''The Sims 3'', pools can be placed on foundations, but this will
'''Walls on foundation / Walls off foundation:''' Walls that are resting directly on the ground cannot connect to walls that sit on foundations or on decking, unless the foundation or deck is above the ground at the same height of the wall.
