    Precisely aligning objects with the Q/E keys is still quite difficult, even when using the shift key. In my opinion, I think both speeds need to slow down, or at least the shift+ version.

    I won't even start with possibilities for other forms of aligning items, but these would be incredibly helpful too.

    I agree. I was actually going to make a post about this yesterday but forgot! Lining up items can be extremely frustrating at times.

    What would help, that the items start in a parallel position to one lot border and would turn 5° per press. At the moment I have the feeling that each press on Q/E turns the object in different degrees. And you guys have never build a maze which has many lined up items. I wihs I had the option to turn items 90° with one key press.

    I would like to see one tap of Q or E snapping to 0, 90, 180 or 270 degrees. Double tap and hold in to rotate smoothly.
    A bit like the sprinting works.

    Would be nice if dragging an item into a wall without placing it aligned it with that wall.

    Those speeds are fps related.

    When I run the game 120 fps itis really fast and hard. When I get 10 fps in crowded and well decorated Owl's Head, it is rather slow even without holding Shift.

    I think it is optimized for 30-60 fps. I think that Shift should slow the rotation bit more.

    Are you holding the item with your mouse at the same time?
    I act like I'm picking up the item with my mouse and then tap the Q or E key on my keyboard, depending on which way I want the item to turn.
