Change backwall digging default /building behavior

[zoehange]

I wish that I could set my duke behavior to dig out back wall by default instead of having to remember to set it every time I load. (And to not dig out plants)

 

Also I wish I could just tell my dupes to dig out the backwall when I'm building new tiles instead of having to remember to dig it before I build. (You can't dig it out while there's a constructed tile there, I think? Which is kind of annoying.) It's a strange asymmetry of behavior given that drywall and lab glass you *can't* build a tile until you deconstruct.

Most of the annoyances could be resolved by allowing you to dig out the back wall when building a tile/ladder, instead of digging the back wall first then building the tile. At least with the ladder and other building you can dig out the back wall after the build. Not so with tiles which have to be destroyed first, dig out, then rebuilt.

Right! If you want to dig out the backwall you have to deconstruct your tile and rebuild it--annoying enough when tiles *aren't* load-bearing, but with aquatic ranches it's a big problem.

Same goes for not being able to build a feeder over a tile, drop off/pick-up, allowing the critters to swim in and out during construction if it is in a larger tank (ranch limited to 96 tiles, tank 120). This is especially an issue now since the drop off/pick-ups are bugged and need to be demolished and rebuilt to get them working again.
