You may encounter various error messages while playing The Sims 4. One such error message is Conflicting Block Clusters. This error typically occurs when you’re trying to connect two structures or edit the rooms of your house.
Let’s explore what causes this error and how you can fix it.
What does “Conflicting Block Clusters” mean in The Sims 4?
The Conflicting Block Clusters error in The Sims 4 occurs when you’re trying to connect structures of different foundations or heights. For example, if you’re trying to connect two rooms with different heights, you’ll get the “Conflicting Block Clusters” error message.
The game doesn’t support connecting two structures of different foundations or heights.
How to fix the Conflicting Block Clusters error
To fix the “Conflicting Block Clusters” error, you need to bring everything to the same foundation height or delete the walls that are causing the cluster issue. You need to bring your structures to the same height.
Here’s an example that you may have already encountered while building in The Sims 4.
Let’s say you’re trying to change the size of your rooms. When you try to do that, the game says that the change is conflicting with the block clusters.
That means the game has detected that your room is touching a different room that has a different foundation height. You need to bring both rooms to the same foundation height.
Here’s another example.
Let’s say you want to build a garage on the ground level but your house is on a foundation. When you want to connect the two structures, you’ll get the “Conflicting Block Clusters” error.
To avoid this error, start off with the garage on the foundation. Then click on the garage and delete the floor.
Add some stairs to lead down into the garage. Deleting the floor should leave a dropped area through the foundation to the ground.
Happy Simming!
