Rotating parts

[EmotionalWisdom]

I noticed some saved ships in sandbox mode and some fan made ships have parts which are in another position, positions that I can't get them into. Like they were rotated. I've played this game for nearly 50 hours and I still didn't find out how. Could someone tell me how to do this. I'm not sure you understand if you want I can put some screenshots

WASD + QE - while holding a part. X for symmetry, C for angle snap. Hold shift for smaller increments.

Once you get the hang of those, you might check out Editor Extensions for some more editor functionality.

Theres this too. Lets you add moving/rotating parts.

Hold alt and then wsad to do fine manourvers, it allows you to place parts at any angle

Has something changed since last I played? I'm holding down shift and trying alt, and any other button combination and I can't get the parts to rotate by 5 degrees now. I've got my rotation remapped to the numpad instead of qwse, is that why?

I just tested it out by reseting my bind keys in game. It IS the wasd keys. Once I reset it back to that shift is working just fine.. If you remap your part keys to something different Shift no longer works for fine adjustment.

when you use the shift key it will rotate a part by 5 degrees... so nine clicks will turn a part to a 45 degree angle
