Description

OS: Windows 10
Version: 0.2.1-474

This issue has been happening for as long as I can remember and has happened to multiple people I play with.

With the sign construction open if you try and delete a path the game crashes.

Research direction

Reproduce the crash on Windows 10 using the reported 0.2.1-474 build or commit 2530cd1. Open sign construction, attempt to delete a path, and trace the resulting crash; done means demolishing the path no longer crashes the game. The issue names no source files or tests, so the relevant construction and demolition entry points must first be located.
