On top of that, a third of the time, I literally slide back down the stairs; the other two-thirds are split between falling through the stairs completely, and getting lucky enough to successfully scale them as intended. Was the intention to have gimmicks like this no longer viable? I'm torn now, because the wooden steps don't fit my aesthetic.
I doubt very much that's intended since the item was designed to act as a staircase.

I don't have any placed right now but I'll try to remember to drag them out of storage once I'm online to see if I replicate the problem.

Likely it was.

Have you tried using the storage glitch to get closer placement? There were a couple of interior items I was having problems getting as close to my interior walls as I used to but I could still do it using the storage glitch. That may still work for outdoor furnishings as well.
