[Rseding91] Lower FPS/UPS in map view when power lines turned on

I just wanted to make sure that someone mentioned it. I thought about posting it for awhile, but figured that someone already brought it up and it's not really a big deal for me as I just turn power lines off.

I believe this is only noticeable in megabases. In map view when you turn on "electric networks", the UPS/FPS drops dramatically. It gets worse the more you zoom out of map view. The other buttons like logistic networks and defense don't even affect the UPS/FPS at all, so I was thinking maybe this is a bug?

zoom out, electric networks ON = FPS/UPS 8/14
zoom out, electric networks OFF = FPS/UPS 17/17
zoom in, electric networks OFF = FPS/UPS 33/33
zoom in, electric networks ON = FPS/UPS 17/17

I understand that there's way more geometry being drawn, but just wanted to mention it anyway.

I took a look at the save and there's really not much that can be done.

You've simply built a bat-s*** crazy amount of electric poles and rendering them takes a ton of time :P

Haha okay. No worries. Turning off power lines in map view doesn't bother me at all. :)

What amount would be a bat-shit crazy amount?
