 - REQ-BLD-GHOST: While in builder mode, a ghost of the building is rendered at the tile under the cursor, showing where it would be placed.
 - REQ-BLD-ROTATE: While in builder mode, pressing E rotates the ghost 90° clockwise and Q rotates it 90° counter-clockwise. Rotation affects the direction of the output port.
 - REQ-BLD-PLACE: Clicking a valid tile in builder mode places a construction site and adds it to the build queue, consuming building blocks from the global stock.
-- REQ-BLD-PLACE-VALID: A placement position is valid only if (a) every footprint cell in the rotated `surface_mask` is satisfied by the underlying terrain — `A` cells coincide with asteroid tiles, `S` cells coincide with space tiles — (b) no footprint cell overlaps an existing placed building or construction site, and (c) the player has enough building blocks to afford the building. The ghost (REQ-BLD-GHOST) is rendered in a distinct "invalid" color when the current cursor position fails any of these conditions.
+- REQ-BLD-PLACE-VALID: A placement position is valid only if (a) every footprint cell in the rotated `surface_mask` is satisfied by the underlying terrain — `A` cells coincide with asteroid tiles, `S` cells coincide with space tiles — (b) no footprint cell overlaps an existing placed building or construction site, except as allowed by REQ-BLD-ROTATE-IN-PLACE, and (c) the player has enough building blocks to afford the building. The ghost (REQ-BLD-GHOST) is rendered in a distinct "invalid" color when the current cursor position fails any of these conditions.
+- REQ-BLD-ROTATE-IN-PLACE: If the ghost's footprint exactly coincides with the footprint of an existing placed building or construction site of the same building type, clicking places no new construction site and consumes no building blocks. Instead, the existing building or site is rotated to match the ghost's rotation. If the target is a construction site, its construction progress is preserved. This applies in both normal builder mode and blueprint placement mode; in blueprint placement mode it is evaluated per building in the blueprint independently — buildings in the blueprint whose footprint coincides with an existing same-type building or site are rotated in place, while the remaining buildings in the blueprint are placed as normal construction sites (subject to the usual validity checks and total cost).
 - REQ-BLD-BELT-DRAG: For belts, the player can click and drag across multiple tiles to place a construction site on each tile in one gesture.
 - REQ-BLD-DEMOLISH: The player can demolish a placed factory building. Demolition returns `world.toml [world].refund_percentage` percent of the original building block cost (default 75%) to the global stock. Exception: if the building is still in the construction queue (not yet fully built, including the one currently being constructed), it is removed from the queue and the **full** building block cost is refunded. The HQ and player defence stations cannot be demolished.
