Controlling Launched Ship From Inside the VAB

I'm having many issues, and I think they may be related. Here's what's going on for me: 

I have a ship currently orbiting Laythe. The ship uses xenon engines and is in a stable orbit around that moon.  With this mission complete, I went to the VAB to build a different rocket. 

While in the VAB, I keep getting errors telling me the Laythe mission is out of electricity, but the ship should not be using its engines as I left them on 0 throttle. This is when I realized that my key inputs were still controlling the Laythe mission from inside the VAB. When I hit Z (while still in the VAB), the throttle on that ship orbiting Laythe went up to maximum and spent its electricity, causing me to be spammed with messages about low resources. If I hit X to cut the throttle, the error messages stop. I carefully avoided these buttons while building my rocket to avoid getting these errors and messing up my orbit around Laythe. 

Then I went to launch my new rocket.  I hit the launch button and it loaded for an abnormally long time (~10 mins) before taking me to... the mission around Laythe instead of my new rocket on the launch pad.  I can't launch this new mission, every time I try to launch it, it just takes me to my probe at Laythe after a lengthy loading screen. The orbit of this ship is also not drawn, with the Ap and Pe floating in space with no ellipse connecting them; I'm not sure if this is related. 

Let me know if you have questions about this bug report.
