<ul></ul>Well, there's no "cancel" command, so if you grab a part by mistake or change your mind, you can't undo it except to exit EVA construction mode. There should always be some way to cancel a move. So I see 2 options:
<ol>
<li>add a cancel command and make exiting EVA construction auto-drop a held part </li>
<li>add a separate function to drop a part and leave EVA construction exit snap-back the same. I'm thinking if you left click when the part you're placing is red (invalid placement) a dialog box could confirm you want to drop the part. If not, it does nothing- you'd still be holding the part and exiting EVACM snaps back unchanged.</li>
</ol>
<p>I actually like #2 because it would allow you to drop your jetpack to carry an EVA experiment, place the experiment and pick up jetpack again to address another issue posted here I cannot locate now.</p>
