    This alignment is likely to change depending on the block rotation and the orientation of the texture. There is something weird with the parallaxing effect that seems to skew symbol locations depending on the underlying texture orientation and your view angle.

    For example, here is a recent build I did where I tried to align letters. Left is the default block positions. Right is after I individually rotated blocks and textures.
