Facing Buildings/Items ?

Post by Gustyboy »

Hi,

Is it possible to change the facing of some buildings/items ?

I know that you cannot change the facing of the Log & Timber cabin (red it on the Wiki), but what about Cupboards ?
Can I change the facing of my cupboards ?

Thanks.

this is incorrect.



hold shift when placing an item and you place it perfectly inside a tile.

now to change the direction of cupboards you should use that and know that the door side will always face you at the time that you place it. so if you place it south of you you see the backside of the cupboard onscreen etc. some items will and some(most) items will not respond in the same way.

Just pick the cupboard up and like was said above, when you put it down, the door will face your character. Hold shift when you place it to align it to the grid.

Don't forget that you can only pick up empty cupboards.
