# Block Rotation Lock<\/p>\n

## Features<\/p>\n

This mod lets you lock the placement axis for blocks with the axis property (Logs, Pillars, Deepslate, Basalt, etc.).<\/p>\n

Press the lock key (default: H) to set the lock direction. (Targeted block face or view direction if no block is targeted)<\/p>\n

While the lock is active, all axis-based blocks you place will be oriented along the locked axis.<\/p>\n

This is achieved by modifying the `BlockHitResult` of your placement action. A server running cheat detection might notice that you’re trying to place a block in a way you shouldn’t be able to. Use this mod only on servers where you know it’s allowed.<\/p>\n

I only made this mod because I was using a lot of raw Deepslate for a build and didn’t like the fact that it can be placed like logs.<\/p>\n
