I had a similar problem and that fixed it.
Rimworld putting roofs over growing areas.
Is it over 400 squares.
Home areas can be set to auto generate around player built objects and structures and can be toggled via the house icon in the lower right of the screen.
You can add supports and it will automatically roof or you can manually add the max roof the supports will handle leaving opening s and leaving status of room as unroofed 2.
Hydroponics when used to supplement outside growing can be good for longer growing crops since it can accelerate their growth cycle considerably.
Only grow rice in hydroponics.
To build a roof outdoors a build roof area must first be drawn.
Try throwing a few wall section in the middle of the two large open areas maybe one on top and bottom to be 100 sure.

Not 100 on the actual number but there is one if it is over that number it will not automatically roof.
Areas can be designated to have a roof or not have a roof by drawing either a build roof area or remove roof area.
A fully enclosed area will be covered by a roof unless you have set a no roof area over it.
If there is no supporting wall or rock within 6 tiles no roof will be built.
The no roof area allows the player to designate an area which will not be covered by thin roofing once a surrounding wall is constructed.
You can normally see where you re missing a roof by the lighter area where it should be shadowed.
There are three different zones related to roofing.
Keep in mind each roof tile needs to be within 6 range of a wall to not collapse.
One solar flare and you re pretty much fucked tho.

You can do this from the side of a building between buildings or put up a single pillar and build a roof off that.
Roofing only covers out to about 6 squares before needing additional supports anything further will either not be made or if it is it ll collapse.
Rather always grow rice but other things are also fine.
Is it too large to support a roof over the whole area.
Removeing mountain roofs so i try to remove the mountain roofs so they don t collapse by declareing a no roof area but on some tiles it will never be possible to declare that area and if i let the roof collapse and remove the debris it just collapses again presumably forever since i tried removing it 15 times and it still collapsed.
I think despite the fact the shadow makes it look like the roof is continuous there s too much space between the supports and the room gets classified as outside.
A build roof area will cause pawns to build a roof in the specified area.
This can be used to create outdoor roofed areas to prevent snowfall or item deterioration or indoor unroofed areas protected solar panels indoor growing areas.
All discussions screenshots artwork broadcasts videos workshop news guides reviews.
It means every couple of tiles you will see this single block of pillar but it should be able to achieve the no grow area without using paved tiles and once you get used to seeing that pillar it s not too horrible in the base design.
If not it will not automatically roof.
