I am not sure I got the first issue, you can rotate each tile individually before placing them.
Re. the second issue, I wanted to try use hexagonal objects, those you can find in the packages at https://kaylousberg.itch.io/ and found some addons but they’re too specific and bounded to Godot versions, a dyynamic one based on any provided 2d shape would do that. We can find a way to make them fit in a grid with some roundings
Grid placement: yes, sometimes it’s got some issue but that should be discussed in GitHub.

That’s the issue. I don’t want a sideways room tile, and for pure cube tiles rotation is only an annoyance.

Sure. I guess this would work but I dislike how custom of a solution that seems to be for what I’d say is general usage.
I just want bitwise calculation 1x1x1 to 8x8x8, so I can place down a chonky arena wall (8x8x2) in the same grid as a hallway (1x2x1) etc without risk of double-occupying cells. The only time I’d want that is for non-block models that are designed to occupy the same space (different types of wall decorations).
Autotiling would be nice, but that’s a step up. Similarly, cell types like on_wall, on_floor, and on_ceiling (and in_air/not_on_floor?) could (if their cell type is empty) allow autorotated placement (similar to the raycast placement added not long ago).
These are the sorts of thing that would go in a proposal, possibly someone has already made these suggestions. If not, I am sure someone else would have better results writing it that myself. EDIT: proposal 1713
I don’t use online services and gave up on local too. Models are too big (storage and download annoyance), GPU I have is a 1050Ti, also too hot for it right now.
Not too keen on generating code especially if I couldn’t recreate a simpler version… unless some general-use 1.5bit model could give advice on Godot and Nim-lang? Not putting too much hope in something like that though, especially due to niche and changing features.

Did you try to ask an AI? Qwen, deepseek or codestral maybe ?

Someone should start creating a model dedicated to godot, it could be a good way to get suggestions and tutorials.
