[Space age] Show other agricultural tower ranges, while holding an agricultural tower.

Post by Purrsistent »

TL;DR
Let us see the range of other nearby agricultural towers, while holding an agricultural tower (or its ghost) in the cursor.
What?
Being able to see the range of other towers would be a good QOL feature, and feels like an oversight, as entities such as roboports and power poles do this already!

Why?
This would be an excellent QOL feature and allow easier building, and keep in line with other entities that have a similar funtion.

I would very much like to second this. If you ask me, every building that has some kind of effective range should clearly represent it even in ghost state for more precision while planning things out. Roboport ghosts have similar problem. Please, amazing guys at Wube, if you can - implement this

Agreed, when i was making treefarm i used some lamps in the copy/paste blueprint as area markers for workaround. It took some trial and error to get them to right spots.
