From reddit user Teokk about 5 months ago;
"I get the reason for power poles and enjoy the early game minigame involving them, but after a while they kinda get pointless. Both from a base design perspective (there is very little challenge from placing them) and from a resource perspective.
There could be a new floor tile, possibly involving copper wiring as an additional ingredient, which just makes everything on it powered.
So you'd still have/want to use poles when extending but are free to get rid of them in your base. I feel it makes sense both from a realistic and game design perspective. Plus I get annoyed with the aesthetics of the sea of poles after a while."
Hear Hear!! Would love to see this implemented, and to see another tech brought into the game. Any thoughts out there?
