Power Pole

Power Poles are small towers that can be used to extend the range of Power Lines to allow for the transfer of power from buildings that produce power to buildings that consume it. These poles can be placed on regular ground but will also snap to foundations. Each pole can have up to four connections leading to other poles or machines that consume/produce power. Each power pole can have an unlimited amount of power pass through it and can be strung together from up to 100m apart.

It is recommended to leave 2 spare connections on each pole for lines coming from and going to other poles.

Tiers
There are currently 3 tiers of power pole available, distinguished by ingredients, connections, and height.

Building

 * While building Power Lines and the 2nd target is not a building, an additional Power Pole will be automatically placed on the cursor's location, as displayed by the hologram.
 * Manually placed Power Poles will snap to a foundation's grid, while the auto-placement of a power pole from a power cable will not.
