Bug #9342
LT-1 and LT-2 Strut Rotate Wrong Axis Compared to LT-05 Micro Strut
100%
Description
The LT-1 and LT-2 Strut do not rotate correctly compared to the LT-05 Micro Strut. When placing a Micro Strut and the W or S key is used to rotate the part 180 degrees the part is in an expected and traditional orientation.
The LT-1 and LT-2 landing struts seem backwards and no other key (Q or E, A or D) will place the landing strut correctly.
Pictures show result of pressing the W key twice before placing each part.
Replication:
Place a part that can easily identify top and bottom.
The LT-05 Micro strut can be placed and rotated correctly using the W or S keys for either the top or bottom of the FL-T400.
Place LT-1 or LT-2 Strut and use any rotate key (W or S, Q or E, A or D) to orient into proper position similar to the LT-05 Micro strut.
LT-1 and LT-2 landing Struts seem to rotate on wrong axis.

Was reported on #8582. #8582 Was marked as duplicate of #7654 (Lt-1 Landing struts have an offset) and that one marked as duplicate of #7593 (LT-2 and LT-1 landing struts are not attaching properly in VAB and SPH).

If the translation offsets are fixed, then this issue is resolved.

That is a different issue. The initial placement and rotation is based how the two part colliders interact. Rotational displacements are another system and need to be addressed separately.
If the landing legs can be placed without offsets in symmetry, then this issue is resolved.
So I confirm this one as a different issue. Feel free to correct me and mark this one as duplicate.
Added screenshots from 1.0.5 and 1.1 for comparison purposes.

Rotation of LT-1 and LT-2 is still weird as of patch 1.1.3, making building planetary bases that require rotated landing legs very difficult.
The problem lies in that the rotation axis is alligned with the landing leg itself, instead of with the attachment point to another part.
These images show the behaviour of the LT-05, which behaves correctly, and the LT-1 which is rotated weirdly when pressing either the wasd buttons or using the rotation tool.
Tested on a clean stock install.
