Newbie question: How do you move or remove objects, like a box or transport belt or mine?

I've read on some forum or other that the most direct way to remove a box is to shoot it. Have also read that buildings can be changed around or removed and the resources used are recovered. But I haven't figured out how that's done. There must be an Undo function somewhere (I hope), because being new to the game, I'll make mistakes while trying to learn how things work and connect together.

Moved to Gameplay Help.

To destroy a box or any other entity point the mouse at it and press C to shoot it, you need a gun and ammo of course.

To remove a building and get it back to the inventory (including all resources inside), hold the right mouse button while pointing the mouse at it.

Rotate an existing building by pointing at it and press R
