All messed up

[SpacedCowboy]

Trying to build a basic plane in the SPH. Hitting R for radial/mirror, and F for build around parent part and , whatever, Everything's all messed up. Can't seem to place the landing gear correctly. One gear is facing straight down, (where it ought to be), and the other, straight up! What am I missing here? Is there another key affecting the build? Been around for a while and I should know better. What am I missing? First correct answer gets a gold star (rep)

Try, when you are hovering on the parent parts (probably a modded parts?), to hit again R.

Try hitting R and using the angle tool. Can I have a pic of the craft? I don't know what's going on and that's the best explanation I have.

I also found symmetries going so completely bonkers that I could not construct an aircraft in 1.04. It was bad enough to get me past my reluctance to use mods, and I resorted to Claw's stock bug fixes. Works like a charm. (Except I still suck at spaceplanes. )

You cannot change from the symmetry type of a previously placed part. If you place a pair of parts using mirror, the next part added to that pair cannot use radial symmetry (and vice versa).

I would guess you are trying to place the gear on a pair of parts placed radially.

Thanks for your input and support ! Been screwin' around with it, and found that the air intakes (inlines) had something to do with it. Maybe a bug, I don't know.
