There is no direction label when building
Won't Fix
There is no direction label on my top right direction display block HUD block direction display thing ma jingy. Either this is a bug or a silly feature making it pointless. I hear everyone I play with complain and say keen are lazy including with other simple fixes like block balance, direction blueprint problems, terrible no effort hit boxes that also cause clang etc. Its not a low priority fix that like many should have been right before releasing the game...
I have the same bug
Hello Engineer,
Thank you for taking the time to share your feedback — I understand the frustration when things don’t work as expected, especially with basic usability like direction display. It’s totally fair to want these details to feel polished, and I hear your concern.
That said, I’d kindly ask that bug reports stay constructive and focused on specific issues. It really helps us act faster and more effectively when we can isolate the problem clearly.
As for the direction display issue, if you’re playing in Creative Mode, there is a way to enable block direction hints. You just need to:
Once that’s set, the HUD should show direction arrows as expected when placing blocks. Please take a look at the attached video.
Let us know if this still doesn’t solve it for you — we’re happy to dig deeper!
Kind Regards,
