Burn, zap, overheat, and fry components
Allow componets to burn, zip, overheat, and fry! Perhpas put a yellow triangle on all components that are zapped. Maybe gradually increase the intensity of the yellow glow as the components tolerance is surpassed and fries.
Currently, diagrams will function just fine even if you overload components. For example you can feed a 7805 200V and it will still allow 5V to flow on the other end like it's no issue.

In v1.12, warnings are now shown if you over-power resistors and other elements.

I do understand that the wire colors do change, but LED diodes, DC motors, and the like do not turn off.
