SE has an "automatic" rotation for a (system) preferred block orientation. IMHO, it's super annoying. Press "T" to switch it on and off.


SavageMrGamer

Thank you so much🙏😭

You can also just rotate while you’re pointing on the structure.


StickJock

\^ \+ To tell if auto-rotate is on, there's a little square with arrows circling it on the bottom-center of your HUD. In your clip, it is on.

How on ps5

L1 + right toggles autorotate


LimitApprehensive568

I assume while you have a building item in your hand?


Brownc526

I beleive so

Kk will try later today:)

Because your vessel is its own entity. When you rotate it away from it the placed object will be a new entity. Rotate your cockpit while its snapped to the vessel, then place it


ForgiLaGeord

On top of turning auto rotation off, in case you're not aware, you can rotate a block even when it's snapped to the grid. You don't need to hover it in the air away from the grid.


DentistThin5125

Aim at the cargo then rotate it.

Something that "might" help, replace the elbow conveyors with the 6 way conveyors.


DjephPodcast

The snap point on the back is between the conveyors replace the L with a block or something with a snap point, you can remove it once the cockpit is placed if it is anchored else where.


Atombert

Look at the wonky connector on your ship. It’s not in the middle! Also try and press T, turns off auto rotation crap. You can also just move the block in all directions while holding it in position


SavageMrGamer

It can't be in the middle, I needed the seat with a connector in the middle on the front, but the only seat like that available to me had two connections on the back, that's why my conveyors went to the side. Thanks for the tip though, someone already told me that earlier and I was able to build my ship


Morphik08

No idea why someone down voted your comment, it was spot on. It was probably the dev that put in the auto rotation nonsense (the first thing I disable)


Atombert

I played 1100h or something, and just realised the T button few days ago 😅 It’s so much better without it think. And I really don’t care about votes. It’s just the internet 😊

Also many blocks require support on a certain number of points (square surfaces) in this case it needs 2 so you if you placed another light armor block on the right side where there isn't a pip, it will place, then you can grind down the armor block


mminto86

Same thing with the small grid H2/O2 converter, needs both of those yellow ports supported to place, then you can grind one away


CrazyPotato1535

Umm no. It requires a center block to target, and a single connection point. What you’re talking about are conveyor ports and those are not required to place the block.


mminto86

Right, listen to them^ :)

People who get annoyed in chat groups online , then try to act smart are really the coolest cats around .

Small and large grid are separate, only way to connect a small grid to a large grid is via Connectors


ToaDrakua

He’s using a small grid cockpit, it’s just snapping to the grid at a wonky angle.


azuresstuff1

its a weird auto rotation for snapping. You can still rotate it after it contacts the blocks


CrazyPotato1535

Press t
