Perfect Placement

Perfect Placement changes how you rotate buildings in RimWorld. I wanted to use the mouse to choose the direction while placing something, a little like The Sims, instead of cycling through directions with a key.

Hold left-click to pin the object, move the mouse to choose its orientation, and release to place it. An arrow shows the blueprint's facing as you work.

A few other placement details

  • Auto-orientation: seating turns toward tables, workbenches, and other compatible buildings.
  • Keep original rotation: reinstalled objects retain their original facing by default.
  • Rotation override: choose North, East, South, or West for builds, installs, and reinstalls.

The mod is localized into several languages and supports RimWorld 1.4, 1.5, and 1.6.

Give it a try

You can get Perfect Placement on the Steam Workshop. It's also included in The Progression Modpack.

I've written about the rest of my mods in Modding RimWorld.
