Settlement building controls?

[Nova225]

It took me way too long to figure out how to navigate the menus as it was. Is there a way to rotate buildings and structures, or is everything stuck being snapped in one direction?

Can only give you what I know for the PC version of the game.
I Found out the the F and G(Left and rigth mouse buttons do the same) buttons on the makes buildings rotate and my mouse wheel can change the distance the object are from me. And since the building part is centered where the crosshair should be, using the mouse to look around allows me to place it in any direction.

For example, using the rotation controls on either the keybord or mouse, the mouse wheel for distance and simply aiming upward allowed me to place 2 turrets on the rooftoops on the sanctuary settlement aimed at the desired direction.

Of course, if its console then the controller should have similar controls from what I read online though I cannot tell you which since I dont use a controller myself.

Hope that helps

And apparently there's no vertical(?) axis rotation controls at all, e.g. someone (probably me) knocked over a lamp. There are no controls to rotate the lamp so it sits on its base.

Then there's Hangman's Alley where building is nigh impossible. Failure to place or snap, so frustrating. Sorry, just me ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥'.

All the controls are in the help section of the pause menu.
