Power Poles

Description
Adds the Power Poles and nothing else.
Power poles are a way to avoid running cables everywhere, and instead have a more aesthetic power grid.

Research electricity to unlock the power poles and wall connectors.

The cables can be connected manually by selecting two poles, or automatically by selecting many poles at once and hitting the button.
The cables can be adjusted to use different colours, or change the amount that they sag.

An EXTREMELY under appreciated mod. Makes building a and controlling power grids SO much easier!

Is there a way to make it so wires always default to black?

Alright sounds good thanks for the quick reply and when I start my PC it takes longer with 100 mods vs when I merge those 100 in to 10 so it does in a way for modding purposes but all good not trying to be argumentative just explaining my reasoning (dyslexic words hard and autistic sorry). Hope you have a wonderful day! and thank you for the luck!

Hi, no I do not want this mod embedded inside others. Adding this mod as a dependency vs embedding inside another makes no performance difference so that argument doesn't track. Good luck with your project!

Hey @Epicguru I'm making an overhaul mod for between medieval and Industrial was wondering if I could use this mod within it (will credit you). For now al make it a dependency but I wish to keep the amount of dependencies down for machines that can't take a large mod list. No matter what I hope you have a wonderful day and thanks for the Awesome Mod!

This is probably one of my favorite mods, never knew just how much I needed it for both utility and looks. Would it be possible to added a setting that makes connecting poles an action that has to be done by a colonist, that way I can disconnect wires to remove power from a section while still remaining in balance with vanilla? Thanks!

Something in this mod whenever you connect poles and power points vomits several yellow warnings in the log UI, it spams a lot, is it intentional? been using this on gravships a lot.

i have been connecting my gravships to my asteroid's power grid using Power Lines, and that got me thinking...
would it be possible to create water hoses ? like, connecting Dubs Hygiene with a Gravship using a simple hose ?

If you move the power pole connectors at all, it will mess up. This can be tested with Minify Everything too.

I don't own the DLC to test with so hopefully someone can make a patch for it.
