Single Powerline Extender doesn't allow long enough wires #11

Open jayzosayers opened 1 month ago

jayzosayers commented 1 month ago

The single powerline extender doesn't appear to be recognised as a transmission line as when you try to run wires between them their maximum length is significantly shorter than the regular transmission towers. If you look at my included screenshot you can see it maxes out around the same length as the regular powerlines. The other two extension pieces with two wires are fine. screenshot Alternative Link if it fails to load: https://i.ibb.co/ykLyhXn/Satisfactory-11-07-2024-00-23-22.png

You're right, somehow missed this in my testing. I will have to figure out how to get this working reliably as I just tested the obvious solution and it didn't take.

A workaround for the time being is to use the heavy wires included in the mod because they can run further, but doing that also allows the transmission towers to be longer too so you have to guess the length and hope you placed your towers correctly for the top wire extension. I'm assuming the obvious fix didn't take is related to the fact it can attach to regular power poles unlike the dual wire ones?
