Yes. I am having the same rotation issue. I have made a short video of this and of a flickering problem with planks and with posters. This is after the latest hot fix. As of late April 28th. 6 pm MST (USA Mountain time).
Video here: https://youtu.be/j4Kim_V25jQ
First part shows the flickering issue. This is planks applied over a block wall, and then posters also flicker whenever you move. Second part shows the control key rotation issue.
Well this is exciting! A map! How does one place a marker? Haven't figured that out. Though It's cool. I like it so far. And I don't know if it's the "improved biome arrangement" but i found a beach straight away! Yay. And corn! And weeds!
"PS: a compass can only have 0-359 degrees that distance is in blocks i.e. you have travelled a straight distance of 37774 blocks from your spawn."
Of course! You're right. I wasn't sure what to call it. but Blocks make perfect sense. I will give your idea a try.
I have a world that I think I seeded by typing Lake in the seed field. It has mountains, forests, temperate grasslands, and yes, lakes. It also has at least one snow biome. It does not appear to have any savannas, deserts or beaches. I have flown due east for more than 3 game days, what must be the equivalent of thousands(?) of miles. I haven't seen anything but the above forests and mountains. I am convinced the world has only these biomes. Is that possible?
I though when you generated a world it will make one with all possible biomes, but place you nearest the biome you typed in the seed field. Am I mistaken? 
If I need glass, and I do, I guess I will have to "cheat" and just make it in creative. No sand for me. 
I should add that this is furthest I have been from base. the further I go the more it seems to lag. Is this common also? I am 37,774 (degrees?) east of my base. So, pretty far.
I agree. I love it that we HAVE weather, but it does seem to rain at least everyday in game days. Sometimes more. Maybe randomized to just 1/3 of days or less? Also fog is pretty darn thick at times, comically so, but I believe this is noted and will be fixed.
Mining sand with a pick. LOL. I'm trying to imagine how this would work in real life. Maybe it's time to add that pictured shovel to Rising World. 
I'm trying to make white trim (woodbeam). The whitest white I have found in game is the the marble 143. But compared to the white door it looks very gray. Is there a WHITE white color I could apply to woodbeams and planks?
I just haven't found it.
Hmm. That's what I typed. But maybe I typed it wrong. I'll try again. Thanks!
Edit: Yes. It's: object fireplacecookingpot 1 That works! Thanks again.
I saw a guy (Reidt) on YouTube spawning and placing a "fireplacecookingpot" is this a thing in the game? I tried but couldn't get it to recognize that command.
Oh. I'm back in now too. Yay! 
Yes. It runs fairly well on my Mac. Tho I do crash/quit almost 1 hour exactly into playing every session. That's OK since I've never lost or corrupted a game. My Mac is fairly high-end. My daughter can't run it on hers. There a few games for us! So I am happy to have Rising World!
I had this issue prior to the 0.8.1.2 hot fix. I've been playing for 2-3 weeks since. Then this morning I can't start the game. Same error. "Waiting for response from Steam." then the error message saying Steam's servers are not responding. Other games do start up ok. Only affects RW. 
I should add, that I played this just last night, and nothing changed as far as I know. It doesn't get past the opening logo screen.

big buildings have to be blueprinted in pieces else parts don't paste correctly
Well ... I guess I will have to experiment. Probably try to to move the building sooner rather than later. Maybe I could try moving it in layers. Like basement and ground floor. Then first floor and second floor. It has a lot of decorative elements on it, and maybe I'll have to do most of that after the move. This is the actual building I am trying to replicate:
A gas pump made for my abandoned gas station. Decals sadly are not included with blueprints, but I might upload some to go with the pumps to imgur. Only the pump is included so far, but I will likely include the whole site once it's finished as a blueprint. Please note, I am using a custom texture on the hose which is replacing one of the blank textures, hopefully it will still show as black.
Wait, what? "decals are not included in blueprints"? Really? So if I put posters all over my manor house and then blue print it, the house will transfer over, but none of the decorations will?
Yikes! If that's the case, then that does completely change my plans of how and when I was going to move it to a new world. 
And I love your lamp post! I may be "borrowing" that one.
Well, that's scary. I'm currently building a huge building, very ornate. In Single player. So far so good. I was planning however to blueprint it and move it to a natural terrain, survival world—still single player. (I built it in a flat world for ease, but I don't want to have permanently it on that terrain. I hope this doesn't happen! But time will tell, I guess.
I did notice that on a couple of placements of complex blueprinted components, that it lost a few block here and there. I was able to replace them. But a whole bunch? Nope.
Cannabis (AKA hemp) consumption could also boost appetite. But then we'd have to have Cheetos.
That would be fun to see! In game anyhow.
The campfire is really loud. Also I think most of us use the campfire in houses for fireplaces and cooking fires. The problem is the noise and the firelight bleeds through the walls-- a lot.
I have a fire in a basement of a really large build, I can hear it on the third floor, and the light glows through to the first floor. If the glow could be fixed to not bleed through walls at all, that would be great. (Like torches. I don't think they bleed through walls.)
If the noise can be lessened or controlled in settings (without turning all sound effect off) that would help too.
I have tried to place a grill over torches for cooking but that doesn't seem to work.
Thanks!!! Why didn't I think of that? DOH!
Great, I already have 84 windows created. BUT NEXT TIME I'll know!! 
Nice Vids Arcane Desmond. I subscribed and liked your latest RW. I am a brand new new You Tuber, too. I'm building a big building in creative right now in my Channel, Wollaton Hall (Batman's house). Please have a look. I'm only learning about making videos. I just bought a good mic, so my 7th Ep should sound better.
I'm playing survival in another world, and will get back to that too.
