Beacons highlighting machines they reach

Post by Zaflis »

The same way that power poles show blue focus on affected machines when placing them down, beacons could too. Currently they only have the yellow glow on background, and at borders of machines it's sometimes hard to tell if it will reach some factory or not.

Optionally also when placing any power using machine, to also focus the beacon if it's being placed in range.

Should use different color than blue to distinct from being a power source. Idea:

This was done in 0.15 a few months ago.
