id = PlaceObject(x, y, "Test", "pontoon_bridge_centre");

SetObjectRotation(id, 0);
or
SetObjectRotation(id, 90);
or
SetObjectRotation(id, 180);

Are not rotating according to the degree system, can you tell me which criteria should be followed to place objects in a precise direction?, or maybe I'm using the wrong functions.

As per the docs, the degrees are in 100ths, so you'll want to use 0, 9000, and 18000 in these examples. So they were indeed rotating already - just only by a max of 1.8 degrees

ummmm, look at the picture, bottom left, the Engineers have placed a pontoon facing 0.
SetObjectRotation(id, 0);

On top, the other engineers have placed the same object with 27000.

The only working numbers are 0 and 157.
0 are vertical tiles, and 157 horizontal, is there any logic here that I' missing ?.

Hmmm - I'm pretty sure I tested it when I wrote it. And I've not got the code in front of me right now. But on a hunch, try doing it in radians. That is, make the value you put into the function be:

value = (100 * degrees * PI)/180

If that works, then I forgot to do the conversion. If not, I'll have to double check it. I'm guessing it is used by the random mission mods, so I think it must work at least somewhat.

value = (100 * degrees * PI)/180

This formula gives 0 for 0 degrees and 157 for 90 degrees.
It's ok for me the 157 as I only want to place horizontal or vertical the object.

Yeah - that's what made me guess that that was the issue. I'll check and see whether I need to change either the code or the docs (I don't want to break any existing code when i make the fix)
