This mod is excellent, thank you for it!
I have a potential suggestion to further improve its performance. Instead of simulating a medium power pole as a connection node, utilizing a simulated constant combinator instead may provide UPS savings as unconnected electrical networks tend to impact performance at scale. A dummy constant combinator would be ignored by the network and limit orphaned networks for the game to track. It also doesn't require an internal energy buffer to potentially detect
I am unsure if this situation persists when packing the circuit, but I do see the network connections of the hidden poles when the circuit is packed and closed in the debug menu
Thank you again!
