  1. When having symmetry enabled but one copy of the part cant be placed the other(s) should be placed regardless. This occurs mostly when trying to place doors.
  2. There should be the following option: Trying to delete a part which would disconnect stuff from the rest of the ship just deletes all disconnected parts instead of doing nothing.

I personally really like the limits to part placement. It gives a reminder to disable symmetry when there's a slight assymetry, and it prevents me from accidentally removing half my ship because i forgot a connection

#

When you have crew construction enabled the latter would be especially annoying since the order of destroying everything is already sent.

Part 2 may be annoying if you accidentally do it but part 1 is good

I can so doing this with doors specifically, but I'm hesitant to do it with other parts. What if you could hold a key to automatically enable blueprint mode if a part can't be built?

Doors are where this is most relevant anyways imo. I just suggested it to work with other parts cause I though it might be easy to generalize.
