    Is there a way to change this?

    I've already tried using the builder tools to point HV T2 drills facing downward for example, and while you can place them, they won't function.

    I've also done the same thing with cockpits, which works, but when you transition to 3rd person view, it resets the orientation.

    I've also tried placing some hover engines on the side of an HV to see if it would give me better traction while climbing out of steep holes.

    If all this stuff is hard coded, it would be cool if we could change this, and it might make for some interesting builds.

    The HV drill is supposed to only work in the direction of travel.
    The hover engine actual positioning is slightly important, but placing them on the sides is not useful, probably an over-complication?
