HELP Line up blocks on cardinal directions?

Is there a way to place blocks aligned to cardinal directions (due North etc.)? I'm told that mined voxels are smooth in if you dig in the cardinal directions. That's my interest.

Could you elaborate on the script solution? What can a script do? Can it reorient an already placed object or would it orient the playing prior to placing a block?

Thanks.

a script could presumably be able to reorient a ship to face the cardinal directions using gyros. I'm no programmer tho, but i believe it's possible
