List of blocks that do not mirror correctly
I'm aware there are duplicate posts about this issue, but I would like to make a compilation of all the blocks I know are affected by this so they may be added to the list. There's a lot of them.
Some blocks like the ion thruster don't need to mirror, however the visual model is still asymmetrical and can spoil the appearance of ships built with mirror.
Other blocks like the Store are completely ignored and don't even face the right direction when placed.
Large Grid Blocks:
Refinery
Solar Panel
Medical Room
Hydrogen Thruster (Small only)
Ion Thruster (Small only)
Sci-Fi Ion Thruster (Small only)
Projector
Basic Assembler
Rocket Launcher
Warhead
Spotlight
Exhaust Pipe
Oxygen Farm
Safe Zone
Store
Contracts
ATM
Vending Machine
Small Grid Blocks:
Survival Kit
Solar Panel
Atmospheric Thruster
Large Atmospheric Thruster
Sci-Fi Atmospheric Thruster
Sci-Fi Large Atmospheric Thruster
Ion Thruster (Small only)
Sci-Fi Ion Thruster (Small only)
Hydrogen Thruster (Small only)
Spotlight
Projector
Rocket Launcher
Reloadable Rocket Launcher
I kindly ask the developers double check if anything else was missed. This problem seems to happen in an arbitrary manner and needs to be checked thoroughly.
Possibly you should explain what exactly you expect from mirroring. Some of those blocks don't have any symmetry (the Medical Room has this L-shape with the skin UI always on the right side of the healing console), so rotating by 180° doesn't work in this case. I suppose we will not get a new, mirrored, model for those.
For all the cases, where mirroring can be achieved by rotation: You can expect better results and Keen should fix it.

Hello, ViciousVinnyD,
thanks for letting us know about these blocks as well!
While going through it, I found some more :)
I did update the bug that we already have in out system with this list.
Anyway, will mark this thread as duplicate (but you probably expected that, right? :) ), since we already have other threads marked as reported awaiting fix. Please see this thread from now on regarding any new info, comments or possible fix coming.
If you stumble across anything else while playing, please don´t hesitate to let us know again. Either by commenting to that one thread or opening new one with similar list.
Kind Regards
