In the most recent build of TSS:

Place a Gentryii, with a chain (not just head-only).
Do NOT click off.
Move your cursor in front of the Gentryii head.
Place the tail.

The tail and head look like they are opposing each other (the tail is in front of the Gentryii head, but facing toward it) in the editor.

When playtesting, on turn 0, before the Gentryii moves, it looks same as in editor.

Then, make a move.

The configuration goes back to normal.

There are still graphical issues with gentryii heads in 5.1.1.alpha.2020-10-16.

If you place a gentryii, then place down one chain, then continue trying to place a second anchor point in the opposite direction, but where the chain extends from the head in a different direction, the head will be at the wrong angle. See the first two images of the below screenshot.

But there is another issue. Place a gentryii as just a head. Then reselect the gentryii to give it a chain, and it will choose the wrong angle when you place its new chain (see the third image).

> It should no longer be possible to place a gentryii in the editor in such a way that the head is not properly aligned to the chain. Additionally, when placing a chainless Gentryii it will face the direction selected in the menu

PR posted with the above change.

Can confirm fixed in 5.1.1.alpha.2020-10-18. Chainless gentryii are placed according to your general monster placement facing angle, and overwriting already placed gentryii with different chain directions correctly updates the direction the head is facing.
