I enter build mode and try the middle mouse button to remove the turret but the game acts like its not there... left click, right click, block select, everything! it does not selet the turret or delete it. all i am able to do is delete the base block its attacked too. any hints?

If it is a specific turret (I've had this happen to me before), you can try a little trick - scale the ship up and then back down again, that will remove all turrets and you can position them properly at that point. Or you can apply a different design and then apply your original one back, same effect.

Kind of a pain if you have a bunch of turrets mounted, but sometimes the only way to fix the unselectable turret issue.

scaling the ship uses resources, if you can affored it go ahead, but i would recommend you to rotate the ship, its free and faster. i dont remember the name of it in build mode so you will have find it ^^) good luck and have fun. PS i did it in sandbox mode, it removed all turrets. but i havent tried it in campagn so it might not even work, just an FYI. :)

Hmmm..... normally you have to use the same mousebutton with the "special" selection. On my mouse it is the thumb-button. Not right, nor left.
If you point the turret and click it with the special-button, the turret should be high-lighted. Then you can delete it with the red sircle on the menu. The turret will appear in your inventory. So, dont worry, the turret will not be "deleted".

Nope nothing, tried all the mouse buttons, nothing is highlighting the turret i am trying to target to remove. Its starting to become a pain, I have resorted to creating platform blocks for the turrets and i have to delete those blocks just to get rid of the turret... i cant even find a special button to be set in the key bindings.
