Can We PLEASE Have An "Are You Sure" When Clicking "NEW" In The VAB/SPH?

[NeoMorph]

Another rogue click when I was rotating my craft and POW!... all gone. An "Are You Sure You Want To DELETE THIS CRAFT And Begin Again" (or something shorter) would surely be a good idea.

I think the last time this was suggested was before the forum imploded and I can't find another thread regarding this (but as we all know, the search function isn't exactly the best).

Yeah, I put in Are You Sure to find a thread that wanted this and guess what I got...

The following words are either very common, too long, or too short and were not included in your search:

Are, you, sure

*THUD, THUD, THUD* <- me banging head on table.

I think the proper response from the search engine should be...

You included words in your search query and they were discarded because I don't understand wor... SQUIRRELS!

I agree, some sort of confirmation text would be nice.

IIRC isn't your craft auto-saved already? So you just load up the auto-saved craft and pick it up from there.

Or maybe I'm wrong.

A craft is only autosaved upon launching it, as far as I'm aware

Whenever possible, undo is always a better solution than a confirmation box. Undo would work perfectly here.

[Kegereneku]

Why not just auto-save the design when you click "new" ? The "Undo" solution would also load this one.

It should solve the problem without the constant frustration of another confirmation box.

I'm all in favor of Skorpion or Kegereneku's suggestions. A save that I can revert to, whether I revert with ctrl-z or by manually reloading an autosave, would take less of my time than either having to rebuild ships after accidentally hitting new instead of save or having to confirm all the new clicks that aren't mistakes.

[NeoMorph]

Yeah, an undo would be perfect... Like I said, I was was just panning around my craft by left clicking and dragging the view around... just checking to see if everything was done right and there were no extra repetitions of parts due to symmetry bugs... and unfortunately I clicked on the NEW box by mistake and whoops... all gone.

I've also dragged parts for Subassembly Loader onto the wrong box (yeah, partially colour blind here) and it the part I want to save gets deleted like I've dropped it in the bin. That's another thing I would like to see stop as well. Maybe have a dedicated bin area where parts you want to dispose of can go. Currently if you drop your part on the menu OR on the boxes at the top of the screen (bar the Subassembly Loader icon) and it's gone for good. Even Ctrl-Z doesn't undelete it if you drop it onto one of the menu items at the top of the screen. It's definitely a bug there.
