# 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.
- Clikc near a corner, and the node will rotate 120° around it.
Sneaking 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 easily extracted. A function mimicking
NodeCore's own rotation logic has to be provided.
