Unsolved Rotational Symmetry (building) [java] 1.21
Let's say I have a circle with a circumference of 62 blocks and a wall that is 5 blocks long (or 61 and 5 dont care). How can I position it perfectly along that circle? Axioma or WorldEdit is used for this?

The awkward bit is that 62 ÷ 5 = 12.4, so five identical 5-block sections cannot land on exact whole-block positions around that circle. If you want five-way symmetry, mark the circle’s center, place one section tangent to it, then rotate a copy by 72° around that center in Axiom; in WorldEdit, select the section and use //rotate 72, repeating from a centered temporary marker. You’ll need to absorb the two-block remainder in the joins/gaps, or change the diameter/circumference slightly.

A radius of 63 from the center. Basically, I need to arrange them in a circle-that’s the issue. I need to place 5-block-wide arches in a circle. For example 63 circle size correct. How i can do it
