Huge bug: placing objects in a perfect 90 degree, 180 degree angle messes it up

This is most notasable with planks and with the homestead ocd addon where you can easily set objects on a 90 degree angle. What happens is that your object will appear on screen normally but you will be able to walk into it and the collision is set to a -90 degree angle or -180 degree angle ruining many projects. this forces people to set the object to an imperfect 91 or 89 degree angle in order to avoid collision

    For me usually if i leave and come back or put item away and retry it will let me put it down at a perfect 90 degree angle. like it will let me do the first item at 90 degrees then the second bugs.

    Yup, this is a problem with the way the game engine allows the display of objects at exact right angles.
    The solution to this is to set the object at a "close" 90 degree angle, such as "89.9".
    Doing that will prevent the object from "flipping" on its center and causing the collision problems.
