Please allow wood blocks (the blocks that have the bark texture on all 6 sides) to rotate. The current limitation presents a problem to builders.
Pretend you want to border the outside of a building with wood. You can lay the wood logs (the blocks with the rings showing on its top and bottom) vertically OR horizontally, but you lay them horizontally. Why? Because you only want the good part showing, the part with the bark. You don't want a bunch a tree rings showing: that would look as though you're lining the building with a bunch of stumps. And that's TACKY. So you have the section looking nice, with the bark in all the right places. But wait! There's a corner! You switch from wood logs to wood blocks, so that the siding will be continuous. BUT YOU CAN'T.
When you place a wood block, it stands vertically. It does not conform to your great ideas, it does not adjust to your grand design, it does not submit to your good plan. Instead, it would rather stand vertically ... vertically, against the beautiful horizontal streaks of black, brown, and beige of the other wood. Wood logs rotate. Wood blocks should do the same. If they have the same "positional" capabilities, it would enable them to seamlessly adapt to one another. It would enable my house (and other people's builds) to be a little bit nicer, a little bit easier.
Please allow wood blocks to rotate. Unite the divide between the wood block and the wood log.
