TL;DR Does SQLCI support FILESTREAM?
I get the error
Synchronization of 'Scripts.state' and ... failed: Default FILESTREAM filegroup is not available in database when trying to run a Red Gate SQL CI Build step in TeamCity against my database which includes FILESTREAM columns.
My source of truth is SQL Source Control backed by Git. I am using a SqlServer 2012 instance rather than LocalDB for validation due to other errors. There are other databases on this server that have FILESTREAM content, so I don't believe the issue to be due to feature limitations.
Has anyone come across this issue before?

Investigations
By running a SQL trace, I managed to pull the network cable just before the database was auto-deleted after the failure.
Based on @DevOps answer I was able to determine that SQLCI was not creating the FILESTREAM filegroup in the database. By manually creating it, the CREATE TABLE was able to succeed.
I have not yet managed to get SQLCI to perform this step automatically.
Based on this forum post
Note: You may need do drop and re-create the database in an earlier build step - I don't seem to be able to re-use.
