If it can be built around a tree, it should be able to be unbuild around a tree

So, back in the old days, the tree hit boxes were rubbish - and as a result of this it was not possible to hand mine belts from behind trees.

Annoying, yes, but there was a workaround. Wait for bots.

Now, you can't deconstruct things behind trees either.

As per the title, if there is room behind the tree to build something there then there is room to unbuild it there. It would also be good if we could do this without waiting for bots.

You can use a custom deconstruction planer if you have bots...
But yes, very annoying. I like to keep my trees!

Good point. Obvious, yet I never thought of it :D

How could you live without a book of deconstruction & upgrade planners?
