Second Floor Walls never render (But only while on Second Floor)

[Blake81]

This is a problem I've been noticing for a while, as now there are a lot more building with open second floors than before. But I reckon it might not be recent.

 

So, whenever you are on the exterior second floor of a building, be it player made or vanilla, ALL OF ITS WALLS GET CUTAWAY.

 

And as you can see here, it even allows effects like fog or darkness to get "inside" so to speak.

 

 

If I walk out of that room, you'll notice that the walls still don't render. However, if I descend to the first floor, or even just leave the second floor and stand on the stairs-

 

The walls magically pop back up again.

 

Now, I don't have a screenshot of this, but if you go up to a 3rd floor (which I don't have on my base), suddenly, ALL WALLS START TO RENDER, 2nd floor, 3rd floor et al, and start behaving normally just like when you're on second floor.

 

This is a problem that kinda makes second floor buildings rather annoying, for it always seems like you have no walls, and the fog gets inside.

Will be fixed in the next patch

It sounds like this is the same issue that I'm having - so I wanted to post here to confirm. I've built-out the 2nd floor of the large warehouse in Muldragh, and I get different viewpoints based on where I am -- if I'm on the old, pre-existing section of 2nd floor, I can see the outside walls and everything is fine. (And I have inside temperatures). When I move onto the player-made wooden flooring, the old pre-existing part of the 2nd floor fades out and it's like I'm outside. The temp drops, and I can hear sloshing as I walk around when it's raining.

 

Here are the screenshots to demonstrate what I'm talking about:

This is when I'm standing on the metal/pre-existing floor of the 2nd floor:

 

And this is what I see (along with temperature drop and outside conditions (rain, etc) when I step onto the flooring that I added:
