im trying to build a U1 cubesat but its impossible because how i cant move parts properly, im trying to add many scientific parts like altitometer but it snaps near another parts or on solar panel and never where i actually want it to be, it takes half an hour to build a simple >50 part cubesat

id say this is a pretty important thing thats been overlooked, but something that can help with building small is knowing how to use the parts tab to turn unwanted connection nodes off and also utilising the groups feature to be able to make small parts that behave as a single part when trying to connect them

you need to decrease the grid size and angle snap values in the designer
if it still doesn't go to the right spot, place the parts just floating in the designer and move them to the correct spot with the translation tool, then use the connection menu to connect the part(s) to the body -

yes, that too, sometimes i use the connection menu and disable annoying sticky attach points, its super useful, but as you said rather underused
