Blocks not rotating

[Nightlistic]

Has anyone else run into this issue where in building mode things like foundation blocks won't rotate so you can't adjust them to have them facing the direction you want them to face? For example I wanted to build a bridge near the salt mines but when I try to put down a foundation I can't rotate the flat side of the foundation to the direction I need to make the bridge.

does it help to have snap mode "X" turned off ?

Nope. I can rotate walls, roofs, and furniture but foundations, flame shrines, and flat ceilings do not rotate. Even clicking R, and R and the mousewheel all you get is the glitchy attempt at moving, but still in the same direction it spawns. So I can't direct the flat side of a foundation, flat ceiling or flame shrine the direction i'm facing.

you know that all blocks are on a grit right? a block ''fountation'' can not be rotated outside the grit it needs to fit in the grit. see it as minecraft. you can not place a block oblique

I was not aware of that. I never played minecraft. I'm used to base building survival games like Valhiem, and Ark. But now that I know. Thank you!

A grid. Every block is on a half meter three dimensional grid. You can rotate furniture, but not blocks.

Sorry, but this is just stupid...
Make the damn blocks rotate freely @devs.

Looking for an answer as I swear you could rotate foundations and floors 90 degrees (i.e. planks run left to right or straight out from player) but now they only face foward with no rotation?!

there is a "leave feedback" button in-game just go there and post everything you see wrong or wish was changed

these devs are awesome and that is the best way of letting them know what to fix/change

the steam forums are not the best place for a dev to get feedback trust me

I am having the same problem with controller and its also with the mouse. I cant rotate building blocks at all and place them in the direction they need to be in. In the past this was never an issue.
