We placed an array of solar panels and Energy Beam Transmitters in the orbit of
Callidus as shown in the picture. I noticed, that one part of the transmitter
shows the "no power" signal, but is clearly within the range of the power
poles. I then tried to fix it by replacing the nearest power pole. This
resulted in a crash.
The game should continue running when I destroy the power pole. Furthermore,
the "no power" symbol should not be displayed.

Hello and thank you for the report.

I loaded the save (both in 1.1.43 and latest dev version) and have not encountered the described issue (no "disconnected from grid" icon, entity functioning normally, upon pole destruction -> no crash) and without reproduction I cannot find source of the problem.

Are you still having the issue after reloading the save and playing again?

Also, next time please specify location of problematic entities with more than a picture in large save like this. (I managed to find setup on the picture on Claudius orbit, but that was mostly luck)

I updated the game to version 1.1.45 and can still reproduce the bug using the same save.
The "no power" symbol wasn't displayed, but after multiple destroy/replace cycles of the power pole and the Energy beam injectors the game still crashed.

I spent some more time trying to reporudce this (both in singleplayer and as multiplayer client) and still no luck . Do you have some more specific reproduction instructions?

I was able to reliably reproduce the bug. One of the Energy Beam Injectors should be outside of the range of the power pole, but it is still highlighted with the blue box. I then place a power pole in range of the injector and destroyed it again. This leads to the crash.

Thanks! The video really helped, reproduction succesful. Looking into the problem...

It evaded me for a long time but it will be fixed as of next version.

The issue was caused by a feature where Reactor (one of the components of the injector was Reactor) would increase its boundingbox when connected to a neighbouring Reactor of the same type. (This feature will be removed in next version)
