Add center of mass/thrust indicator when building rocket
With the addition of RCS control, I find it difficult to place the thrusters such that the rocket's control is balanced. For example, translating left might also cause a slight rotation if the thrusters are not placed symmetrically about the center of mass. However there is currently no way to see where the center of mass is, other than trial and error.

And allow RCS thrusters to be scaled to compensate.
