You cannot mine these poles unless you are truly in range, but you can left click on them and see the network stats (which is nice).
I'm guessing this is a side effect of the range limit to view stats being removed? (I didn't notice anything in the change log, but I assume it was a deliberate tweak?)

Re: Power poles display yellow hitbox even though not in range
Hmm, maybe it would benefit to have a different colour? The yellow makes me think I can mine it and is misleading.sicklag wrote:Changelog 0.16.0: Electric poles and power switches can be opened from the zoomed-to-world view.
If you can do this, that means you can click them while you are not in range?!
EDIT: Yes you can click every pole in your view to check the energy
That's not a bug, that'S a feature

Yellow is "can't mine". Red is colliding and green is mineable.chris13524 wrote:Hmm, maybe it would benefit to have a different colour?

Re: Power poles display yellow hitbox even though not in range
If I'm close enough to a piece of belt or a splitter or a tree or an assembler or some or to mine it I get yellow. Too far away I get red. The only time I remember getting green outline boxes is pumpjacks. Power poles I get yellow even if they are across the mapRseding91 wrote:Yellow is "can't mine".
