Rotator Blocks that change the orientation of blocks

under review

A Rotator block is a block that, when powered, changes the orientation of the block is facing (if that block can be oriented) by 90 degrees clockwise. a good example would be a change the direction a piston pushes, for example. Would be very useful for slimeblock machines and guardian farms.

    Along with a rotator item, block rotation should just be made consistent. For some blocks, rotation is decided by which direction you are facing, but for others it is decided by which face of a block you place on.

    You could add a whole new layer of physics with rotating blocks, gears, wheels

    How about instead of a block or the debug stick a staff of rotation instead?

    I think this would be better as a item/tool, like a scepter made from amethyst and sticks or copper ingots that would act kinda like the debug stick

    Maybe just turn it in an item instead of a block(e.g. wrench)?

    like wrenches a debug stick for certain things in survival.
    then a different color wrench texture could be used for the debug stick.
