I made a small storage room in my base yet when i hover my cursor over it it says outdoors.
And in the bottom left it says constructed roof
I'm so confused
This is a problem because my cooler isn't actually cooling the room.
I've tried unroofing then reroofing and reloading the save no luck
What do I do?
Edit: Forgot to mention some parts say constructed and some say overhead but that shouldn't matter.

Your roofing is fine, the problem is that there's no door separating your room from the outside.  Thus the whole room (and the corridor leading into the mountain) are Roofed, but Outdoors.

I often make deliberate roofed outdoor areas around my early buildings as places to put stockpiles of materials that will degrade if left in the open.
Mental break: playing RimWorld
Hans Lemurson is hiding in his room playing computer games.
Final straw was: Overdue projects.

Oh thank you didn't even realize.

Also, are you using the roof/exclude roof tools in the zone menu?
