PC "Place all block rotation" command

[Gatling96]

Hi folks!

Can someone tell me how exactly i can enable and use all of the block rotations with "PBR" (Placeblockrotations) command ? I have the required 1x1x1 block equipped in belt,  but when i type the command in the console, i get the following message: "No selection active. Running this command requires an active 1x1x1 selection block"...

Thanks

Lol.. I didn't have a real idea what you're trying, but that error sounded like you'd need to have a dm selection made; I decided to check it. Yes, you need a selection box in the world, and now I have all kinds of poles replaced with flimsy wooden frames in my base

dm

outside of console, press z while aiming at a block you want to select

pbr => have magical holes all around base ..

Yeah, it is a "selection" block rather than an actual block.  Z will select an air block that you are pointing at in dm (whatever is in front of another block). Shift-Z will select the block itself.  Backspace will deselect it. 

I haven't used that command and am not sure what exactly it does, but I don't think it does what it sounds like you think it does (allowing you to rotate your specific block in any direction).  For that, if the block doesn't already allow it, I think you have to mod the extra rotations for the blocks you want to have full rotation.
