Re: Wrecking Ball Deploying Backwards
Shift + control + mouse wheel should help

Re: Wrecking Ball Deploying Backwards
Perhaps on the initial build, but what about when I've packed it up and am redeploying it?
I got this job done by sneaking myself between the house and the wrecking ball itself, but there's a wall demo job in my future...

Right-click the object you carry and then, before clicking the ground to actually place it, move and rotate with with shift+control+mousewheel.
But I agree that it is an oversight of the devs that you can't imply click it against a wall/building (like we could place stuff in previous worlds as close as possible to something else by simply right-clicking the object to place against) and be done with it.
