It's really a bummer how you can't rotate PWPs. All I want is a nice sideways bench, y'know? I can get not being able to rotate the big ones, like the police station and the campsite, but you'd think it wouldn't be too hard to make it so that you could rotate most of them to face the direction you want.
 
While it initially bothered me, I think it'd take a more significant amount of coding, plus there's having to figure out how to introduce this mechanic to the player...it's not really worth it in the end because of the effort it'd take for just this one little thing.
 
Yeah, I've always wanted this, too. While it doesn't bother me too much, I am a little bummed it isn't possible. Before I knew this, I had all kinds of plans with rotated PWPs, like benches in different directions around a fountain.

I wonder if they'll make it possible in the next game. Actually, I wonder if we'll even still be mayors in the next game!
 
It's something I hope they'll add in future games, though if they do that they might add a rotating viewpoint as well? Who knows

Yeah, I thought about how the coding might be more complicated. But it wouldn't be THAT complicated to explain how to do it to the player...right? (I mean, depending on how they would decide to do it, anyway)

It would be. I thought about it for a minute, and it's actually a bit hard to think of a way to present it to the player.
 
The idea of a sideways bench is brillant! Then I could place one by my cliff overlooking the ocean view.

That just reminded me, there's already a sideways bench on Main Street, right? It's kind of funny how they would put a sideways bench in the game and then not let us build one ourselves, lol

Well that's Nintendo Logic for us!
Nintendo Logic = Trololololololol
 
I would've liked this too. There's some places where I want to put a bench but the only way it would look nice is if it was sideways. Hopefully it'll be added in a following installment.
 
That's the only thing, benches. I would love to have the ability to rotate those. That would be cool.
