Rotating objects with mouse way too fast.
I tried looking for other posts on this subject, but found none, so here is my own post. So my issue is in the title: when I try to freely rotate an object with my mouse, it just rotates like crazy and always only in one direction. I have no idea of its my mouse. I tried lowering the speed but no avail. It becomes really, really hard to be able to place objects with precision. Are there people who know what i'm talking about? Any solutions?

Mine is doing the same thing, changing the mouse speed in the settings slowed down the camera movement (which was also way too fast) but had no effect on the building rotation speed.

For me the rotation speed varies depending on which part of the circle I drag around. It seems to depend on how you are looking at the object, so I usually just try a few spots till it works.

Thank you for the replies guys. I'm glad there is some sort of work-around, but really it shouldn't have to "take a few tries" :( I'll try it later. Hopefully they'll have a fix soon.

I have this problem too. Did you find any real solution?

Bump - getting this issue really bad - can't really place anything except where the game let's me on the 90 deg turns. Basically means I can't run fences along a path at all without it looking like garbage. Any tips?

use advanced move instead

If I may pop in, the game seems to have a built-in "mouse acceleration" - which is something I turn off for Windows and most games (which is why I noticed this game has it 'on' by Default).

-
JFYI, Mouse Acceleration is where, if you move the mouse one inch IRL quickly, 'in the game' it will go really far and fast, but if you move the mouse one inch very slowly IRL, 'in the game' it will not move very much at all (or will move slowly in the game).

With a game that has Mouse Acceleration OFF, it does not matter how fast you move the mouse at all, one inch IRL will 'always' move your game world the same amount (view/motion/etc)

-

Most games will use 'whatever the Windows setting is' [as far as Acceleration is concerned] - but this game seems to not do that; as I have Mouse Acceleration OFF in Windows 10, yet in the game if I move the mouse fast an item spins around quckly, whereas if I move the mouse slowly IRL, the item will move just a little, slowly.


Also, if I may add, if you have a Mouse that allows the adjustment of DPI [the 'density' of how the mouse reads movement - how much you have to move the mouse to move in a game, changing it possibly 'on the fly', where you can move quickly normally, but then slowly in-game for certain things, such as using a Scope on a gun - while moving the mouse the same distance each time]; adjust your DPI to a lower setting, as I found that when I switched to a lower DPI mode, the item spun around very slowly [compared to my Default DPI setting].

HTH

I have the same problem, and its killing me, it takes so long to readjust each item with the X option, it spins really fast, even if I move my mouse as slow as I can.... didn't find any solutions yet.....
