Ah, thanks for the reminder @LazyTaco !
I have a few more ideas.
If it’s not the mods, can you send a screenshot @ChiChi2025 ?
Or tell us if this happens with all the pools or only on certain lots/in certain worlds?

Is it on a lot you downloaded? It can be it’s not properly playtested and the pool is placed with a platform around. If that is the case, Zois can’t enter the pools and no pool ladders can be placed.
So what you could do is: remove/delete the platform or reach out to the creator/builder of that lot (or wait until it’s implemented (inZOI is still early access)).

Platform issue looks like this:
