How to Rotate Buildings in Star Trek: Outposts Unknown

While a building placement preview is active, use V to rotate it, or use the left and right arrow keys to choose the direction.

Default rotation keys on PC

Action in Controls Key
Rotate Building V
Rotate Building Left Left arrow
Rotate Building Right Right arrow

Select the structure you want to build, rotate its preview, and confirm the placement once its orientation and footprint are correct.

If the keys behave differently

Open Settings → Controls and look for the three actions with Building in their names. Use your own bindings if you have changed them.

The separate Rotate Left and Rotate Right entries bound to Q and E are not the same building-placement actions. Both V and the arrow bindings can exist at the same time.
