Determining the direction of Mayor-Mode Plops?

[x493x 446]

I have a lot of mayor mode ploppable cars, tanks, and such and I was wondering how to get them to face a certain way since their direction seems to be random.

Do you mean ploppable on lots or ploppable as in the mayor mode trees? If they're on lots, you can use the home and end keys to rotate them clockwise and counterclockwise.

Well with some MMPs if you click them after plopping then they change directions.

You simply cannot control them.

Btw where can I find ploppable cars/tanks?

I'm talking about ones like the VIP MMP Cars where everytime you click they change to a new car but it gets annoying when you want them parellel to each other and then they end up cutting through each other and going all different directions.

Good luck with this one. I don't think the programmers ever anticipated this capability.

Yes, I would try clicking multiple times in the same location to change the orientation to your liking. Otherwise it is a lot of trial and error. For this hobby you have to be very patient to get things to be aesthetically pleasing.

EDIT: Read some other posts here and I suppose that doesn't work out. Seems you'll have to do some trial and error unless something else comes up.

Well I tried this and it seems when I'm placing things like MMP airplanes that if my camera is facing a certain view, it will face the way you are facing(not facing you) most of the time.
