[BUG] Room Requirements Failed

[PreliZm]

Good evening,
i was creating a new Prison until this very annyoing Bug appeared, i wanted to build some new normal cells but the room requirements failed caused by the Failure of "enclosed" (surrounded by walls and doors). But I dont know why because the room is built from a clone taken by a room who hasnt got this error message.
I took a screenshot of this problem, but dont know how to post a screenshot here.. Can anyone Help me?

the best way to put up images is with flickr in my limited opinion
somewhat easy to create an account even though yahoo has devoured it
then easy to upload n cut n paste the link
a few flickr uploads of mine in the 'how do you handle supermax' thread if you want to check out flickr

hard to tell your issue otherwise, as you would have had to build the foundations b4 you placed in the clone ensuring a 'sealed environment' perhaps the area outside of the cloned area is not 'sealed in' ?

did you add extra walls after cloning? perhaps although the area is walled in it is not inside an -inside area? which it needs to be

I've run into this problem before & every time it turned out to be one of these 4 things:

1) Make sure that the door entry is not marked as a "cell".
2) Make sure that all areas within the door way & walls are marked as a "cell"
3) Disband/remove the door & build it again. (I believe this is a bug because it doesn't happen every time when cloning, but I have had it happen to me atleast 3 times on one prison.)
4) This may sound stupid but make sure that you select "normal speed" after cloning a cell for the changes to take effect (wait about 5-10 seconds). If you clone or build a cell while the game is paused the cell will still be marked as "requirements not met" until you select play & wait a few seconds.

I know that 1 & 2 may seem impossible because you cloned the "working cell", but don't rule it out completely either.

Number 3 seems random & VERY hard to reproduce again but it is obviously something that would be considered a "minor bug".

In addition to 1 and 2 above, I'll state the obvious; have you given your workers time to build your cloned cell

I had one recently where it turned out a section of wall hadn't been built. It was at the middle of two intersecting walls so had no path to it. Took me ages to spot as it was only a single square and had a planned wall on it.

Hi,

sorry for resurrecting this topic but i have the same bug but not with cloning. building a simple 4 wall, adding a door and then i get the error for enclosed failed. This happened in the campaign i have not yet tried in free mode.

A screenshot would help immensely. That said, the first thing to check is that the square under the door is not zoned as part of the room that you are trying to enclose.
