Coppercable not set

Post by Baerstein »

Hello again, not sure it is a Bug.

I use a blueprint to set big poles on a long distance and now i have a problem.
Do discord picture work? Ill try

here are my all in wonder blueprint that did his work without a problem for now and some lasertowers do defend my work. so i have time to set properly and set my Perimeter at the end of it to finish.

now you can see, there is no coppercable between my large poles.

here a closer Look:

Left is set correct, right is again no coppercable.
i have to destroy first my towers and substages(?).

is there an interference between the cables at all, or is this a bug?

greetings! :)

EDIT: So here is a picture with 3 Connections, also it should everytime work, but did not.

Not a bug

From what i see, you just hit limit of 5 copper cables going to power pole. No more copper cables will be connected to this pole without removing some connections (does not apply to red/green wires)

Electric poles have a limit of 5 copper wires per pole so maybe you're hitting that limit?
