Anyway of Placing Marble Figures More Specifically?

[TheKingofSquirrels]

For the last 20 minutes, I've been dropping and picking up my Deerclops figure over and over again, trying to place it perfectly in my base. The problem is that when your character drops the figures, it falls in a completely random spot. I want my base to be symmetrical, so it's driving me a little bit crazy. 

Am I doing something wrong? Any advice?

*Also, just realised I spelt my title wrong. Oops.

There should be a beefalo or cart system to move items in the future. Maybe I'm a pleb for not figuring how to move a statue piece without feeling pain?

Can't you carry items with beefalo? Or do you mean items as in the structures like the marble statues or inventory items?

There's a mod called Geometric Placement. Fairly sure you can use it for placing statues

Stand where you want the statue to go and equip a chest item. There’s also a quick drop mod that’s great.

Not those kinds of statues, he's talking about the marble figures that you pick up and drop after sculpting.

But yeah the two answers are to either wear a chest item to drop the item straight down, or use Quick Drop.

Do you mean like any piece of armour? How does that change anything?

It drops the item you're carrying straight to the ground at your feet instead of bouncing off. Quick Drop does the same but with a button command that works with any item.

Huh, cool.

Thanks!
