Gear placement at a given angle?

Given that the 3 gear in the picture are the same is it possible in Georotic to place the gears with a mirrored symmetry?

Can you better define what you mean by mirrored symmetry? DO you mean tooth meshing on that third one?

Yeah whenever I try to put a second wheel down (the middle gear being the pinion)  I get a tooth clash

This example where the gears are at 90 deg to each other

Hmm, that seems like a bug I haven't yet seen. How is it being placed? Left gear, then top right rolled off left, then bottom rolled off of top right?

Ill run some tests..

Top right pinion then topleft rolled off top right then bottom one rolled off top right. Weirldy I cant replicate the error now!

Tested, works here too. Are you using the latest Gearotic version  Nic Bwts?
