    Hi,

    This has probably happened to everyone at one point. But I have been doing a build for my YouTube channel. I have been building it in my Shipyard and have just realised that I've build the ship the wrong way with the core. Please say there is a way of getting my ship turned around so it is facing the same way as the core.

    TIA.

    Copy and paste the entire ship around the right way.

    Hmm the only thing I see is using copy-paste of the advance build mode.

    1. Box your ship.
    2. Copy the box.
    3. Remove the ship.
    4. Place a chunk to be able to paste it in right place.
    5. Rotate the pre-paste model
    6. Paste.
    But if I remind well it won't keep the logic links, neither the docked entities.

    Fixed it, thanks guys for your help. Copy and pasted it with the help of some blocks. They should really add a way to turn the ship core to stop people giving up on builds when they mess up.

    lol. Somebody learned to pay attention to the arrow in the top-middle of their build-mode screen.
