turning attic space into room possible in this situation?
I have an attached four car garage with an angular roof that is flush to the side of the house.

To access this room, I envision a door to be placed on this wall above the second floor landing with a bridge to connect the two floors.

maybe. . .
Measure the deflection at midspan for one of your attic floor joists, then measure again with you stepping on the joist at midspan.
Is it a modified King Post truss, as shown in this link? The Best Timber Roof Truss Designs | Decorative Truss | Church Beams | Commercial Timber Truss Construction | Interior Ceiling Beams You're in the Ozarks? I'll need that info to look up your normal roof loading. |
I am not an expert but I guess it can be possible just like what it looks like on your floor plan.
