Square Tower Question
i tryd to build a square 2x2 tower with 1 side as a entrance with a "Massive Fortress Gateway" which is exactly 2x2, the tower should have been around 4-5 walls high but then i saw there are no real stairs for a tower like this. i tryd using the "Castle Ceiling (Three Quarters)" together with the "Quarter Width Steps" which somehow worked but there is barely enough to room to get on the stairs, if i would build a tower like this with the curved walls, it would work sincethere are the "Ceiling (Full Round w/Cutout)" and the "Curved Steps" but there is nothing like this for the the straight walls. i could live with the Three Quarter cutout and the Quarter width Steps but when i try to build the same thing for the roof and build the Battlements around it the Three Quarters cutout is blocked and i cant get up anymore.... am i doing something wrong there or is there really no way to build a simply 2x2 tower with steps to the roof that wont get blocked by the battlements or need a jump to get on... ?


here are some screens of what i mean, if there isnt any way to build this better.. it would be rly sad :D

With battlements, those were designed as decoration and it didn't occur to me that people would want open topped bases until after the fact when they complained. You can use the center hatchway, trapdoor and ladders for a small tower like that or you could put a wall in on the next to last floor so you can flip the ceiling around. The stairs would be in the middle but it would work for your situation. I have a couple ideas for capping that type of area but I haven't been able to find the time to get those pieces. Thank you for the feedback!
