This crash occured just as i removed a small shack foundation i had placed but not yet built

confirmed with deconstructing an unbuilt gate.

Ok, after some testing, i've confirmed that deconstructing (FULLY or PARTIALLY built) SHACKS and GATES always results in a crash to desktop.

Deconstructing the following contructables results in a 10-20 second game freeze:
-Generator
-Bed
-Building supply container
-research bench
-farm
-well
-grain silo
-stone processor
-shacks (0% constructed)
-gates (0% constructed) [NOTE: of the 5 times i have tested this one, i have had 2 crashes]

Walls cannot be deconstructed once they have been built.

this also happens when destroying buildings you've bought in premade towns.

Hey mattk50, can you rename this thread to 'Crash when demolishing shacks and gates' (or something?)

As an update to this issue, I have sometimes been able to deconstruct a partially constructed shack without a crash. Additionally, I have found that in a new game, I was able to deconstruct a partially constructed shack 5 of out 5 times.

After the first shack was built, I tried partially constructing and then deconstructing a second shack, and I was able to do so 2 out of 2 times without a crash.

Deconstructing the 1st completed shack still results in a crash.

In an old game, with lots of buildings, I partially constructed a shack, and saved the game. I then successfully deconstructed it, but when I tried retesting the quicksave file, it crashed 2 out of 2 times.
