Full Power Coverage

by Morhe

Makes the supply area for small and medium electric poles match their wire reach. Slightly reduces connection range to force connection ranges to even numbers of tiles, then raises power coverage range to match. Automatically compatible with most mods that add their own power poles.

Makes the supply area for small and medium electric poles match their wire reach, so that you can get full coverage from drag-building power poles in the open. For my fellow OCD gamers who prefer to have a square power grid and build blueprints that slot into that, rather than bespoke spot-covered power pole placement in blueprints.

All discovered power pole objects have their connection range reduced to an odd number if necessary (to remove 1 tile gaps), then have their supply area increased to match. Does not affect Substations or Large Electric Poles (or any other power pole that doesn't have coverage close to its connection range).

Should be automatically compatible with mods that add their own short-range, for-coverage power poles, though some may need to be set as optional dependencies to ensure they are loaded first and then modified. Mods set this way currently are:
