g (Resolved) Slight Incompatibility with Oil Platforms from Cargo Ships

2 months ago

Hello, It seems no terrestial pole can connect to the integrated pole that the Oil Platform has from Cargo Ships, meaning the pumps that fill up the ships done work. For now it can be avoided by going Oil pole -> Floating Pole - > Big - > Medium->Small, but maybe since the oil platforms use the medium pole sprite, make the same rules as the terrestial medium version?

After using this mod I have to say its brilliant, it makes the grid design and the small poles relevant again, when past early game you just plop the best you have and forget about it.

Currently, (at least should be):
The floating pole can connect to other floating poles, the oil rig pole, and the big electric pole.

The oil rig pole can only connect to other oil rig poles and the floating poles.

To make sure I understand, you would like for the oil rig pole to able to connect directly to medium poles?

Indeed, wouldn't that make more sense?
Else you will need at the very least large->medium->small just to use the pumps you need to put on the platform.

Better yet, why not just give them the exact same attributes as the medium poles in general, since they share texture? Meaning able to go directly to small, medium and/or large, and its unique exception been that it can connect to the floating poles as well.

I do not have much experience with cargo ships. With the startup options available for the oil rig pole and generator, I suppose any combination of poles could be useful. Version 1.15.7 has been uploaded.
