Rotate hotkey - Walrus - 06-21-2013

Make it so Shift + Click rotates an object, mostly because the new selection screen takes significantly longer with a popup window rather than the older method.

That'd be neat, I don't think shift click does anything at the moment so why not


Re: Rotate hotkey - Klayboxx - 06-21-2013

can't you just type rotate into the text bar and it'll choose the thing you are closest to and rotate it?

Cant you just stop shitting on normal solutions to create easier options in game with "well it already exists do it the harder way"

I don't know what's with you people and attacking people who don't agree with your idea, but you should cut it out. Christ.

In the case of having more than one thing that you can rotate near you it will only choose one to rotate which is a pain while dealing with windows since they always have more around them. Being around chairs and a few other things would make it harder as well.

Actually, don't mind me, completely forgot that Shift+Click for humans is still free.

I'm just saying it exists, chill the fuck out dude. Thing is, ihere is already a nice interface for this and it isn't like you need to be able to do it on the fly at any point, so the interface works just fine.

And yeah, that is annoying.
