I have discovered that we have set the trusses between 8-10cm offset between the long sides, in relation to the frame, the frame was built in blocks, and did not turn out exactly the same. When we erected the frame, I took into account placing the trusses on standing studs! Which they do. But now I have discovered that the trusses are about 10cm offset between the long sides, does this matter?? The frame is built with 145 timber with reinforced wall plate. Grateful for a response!! Regards
 
There is a significant risk that it will be noticeable in the future if the entire roof is shifted to one side. So much so that it just needs to be adjusted as shown on the map.
 
In terms of strength, it shouldn't make much difference.
There will be some extra fiddling with the gables to get them straight/in angle, but it might be less additional work compared to redoing and getting it right. Of course, it depends on what needs to be done to get it right.

If you choose to continue without redoing it, make sure to document everything. You will know, but future owners won't if you haven't documented how it is done/looks in the framework/construction.
