Is there an easier way to remove wires than right clicking on the module that they go into and un-ticking the source?
Its easy to make wires with ctrl-click, i reckon if you ctrl-right click on a wire it should delete. something like that would be handy.

Yes, there is another option:
Simply ctrl clicking like you would if you had to create the wire again
will remove that wire !
However, this is not intuitive, so I plan to make this different somehow.
Havn't really come up with a better way yet though.
ps: Be careful that you don't accidently create an infinite loop.

I think u should be able to click on the wire and have it bring up a context sensitive menu...including a delete option.
Maybe, use the arrow, make it a little bigger or give it a generous hitstate, so that u can click on it and it brings up options.

Although sometimes I've found this useful. I like the option to create feedback loops a lot, even though it can be dangerous like you say.

As robenestobenz said, it would be better if the option to create feedback loops was still there, perharps tho add a warning screen in case it was created accidentally, but i think u should try and come up with a more intuitive way to remove wires that allows the creation of loops in a completely unrelated fashion, so the user will not confuse the 2 actions...

I've made it so holding the mouse over a wire-arrow, highlights the arrow. Right clicking removes the wire. Hope this is what you asked for?! Will be in next release.

What language do you use to make karma, and what IDE, and how do you compile it? I wanna get into this kind of stuff...
