Post intersection area does not match

I'm still pretty new to openstudio application and I keep coming across this error while building the model. Whenever I try to merge with the current osm file, multiple errors show up saying something like "initial area of surface 'Surface 32' 1.90104 does not equal post intersection area 1.86979". The closest to my situation that I could find is https://github.com/openstudiocoalition/OpenStudioApplication/issues/228 and this issue was apparently fixed in v1.2.0, which is the version I'm using and encountering this error on. One thing that I've noticed was that surfaces on the lower floors would sometimes break up into smaller surfaces when I add a new space on top, with new edges extending to that space. Does anyone know what exactly is going on and how to resolve it? Thanks.
