Spent hours decorating my 3 story house placing down items individually only to come home to a big [censored]in mess and missing items from falling through the tables and floors, why even have the option to do that if the game is broken in that area, whats the point of building a nice town with dull empty houses? Whats the point in building shelves and tables if your items glitch through the earths surface? Is there ever going to be a fix? Or am I wasting my time collecting monkeys from space toys and nuka cola trucks.

I suppose that some FO4SE mod will address this issue in a few weeks. Like extra keybinds for moving/rotating objects. Not really sure if any patch or DLC will ever fix this engine thing as it seems to persist since Oblivion.

i believe the problem is how the items are loading into the world. the smaller items load in and start falling before the bigger table loads in. just a guess

This is a different issue than Oblivion. In Oblivion, your items would return to the last place they had been dropped before you moved them, but you could fix it by going in your house, dropping all the items you wish to place on the floor, go out of your house and save the game. Reload that game and then go back in your house and place your items, and then they would stay there until you either moved them or caused a physics explosion by accidentally bumping into a table.

In Fallout 4, your items sink through things and then into the floor and it doesn't matter where you save as far as I can tell. Completely different problem.

My Fallout 3 and New vegas homes had 100s of items in each home without having this problem ,there is a rotation and placing feature in the workshop menu but items still glitch, very annoyed at this, Not to mention I cant kill whoever I want due to some npcs being invincible gods,, theres some ppl i just feel like murdering in Fallout and now we have to be friends no matter what,,but thats another story.

what about workshop crafted objects like safes and other containers. Will these workshop crafted items fall through the world's surface into Oblivion (pun intended) making you lose all the high $$$ items you stored in them? I haven't been to the RR in a while. Now I'm dreading what my PC will face when he returns to that cell....

Pun appreciates The answer is no. Workshop items are not affected. Only items dropped from the inventory.
