# NodeCore Extended Rotating

This mod follows in the footsteps of the useful [Extended Placement] mod for
[Minetest] and adds the ability to rotate certain nodes from [NodeCore] such
as optics and doors easily, without having to cycle through all possible
rotations every time.

Rotating a node can be done in three ways:

- Click near the center of a face, and the node rotates 90° around it.
- Click near an edge, and the node will be rotated 90° away from you.
- Click near a corner, and the node will rotate 120° around it.

Sneaking while empty-handed inverts the direction of the rotation.

At this time, nodes that can be rotated are hardcoded into the mod, since
their valid orientations can't be determined just by their node definition.
A function mimicking NodeCore's `node_spin_filtered` has to be provided.
