[0.11.19] Disappearing cables (cosmetic)

[theRustyKnife]

So I've noticed this slight issue with big power poles:
If you stand about half way between two big poles and zoom in closely, the cable (wire) just disappears (is not rendered, invisible). Interesting is that if you walk closer to the pole it will appear again. I guess it's the poles unloading or something...

the cable shows normally

from far away

the cable disappears

same place, zoomed in

the cable reappears again when near the pole

same zoom level, moved to the pole

Sorry if it feels stupid to report, but I'm kind of an OCD...

I think it's coded so that a cable is visible only if one of the pylons it's connected to are visible. I saw this first in the Test Mode mod which has modified power poles with insane range, but clearly it can happen zoomed in with large power poles as well.

Thanks for the report. This is a known cosmetic problem. I will put this to minor issues for now.

Seems resolved now

This bug is not resolved. Another report of this bug was put into the Won't Fix section (viewtopic.php?t=23458), which I believe is wrong because this bug can be reproduced very easily and it detracts from the quality of the game. This bug is still present in 0.17.79.

It is still a minor issue, we might get around to it

I've seen this behavior also with large sprites, like the global meteorite turret in Space Exploration mod which is quite long. It disappears when the top of the sprite is close to the bottom of the screen...

Indeed, still present in 0.17.79.

It is easy to reproduce, but it happens at very specific setup: big poles at max distance, player really exactly in the center, and maximally zoomed in. Very minor issue, and I never noticed it before, but hopefully will be fixed eventually.

[jmkool]

Would like to report that this issue still exists (or has resurfaced, if it was fixed). Last report seems to have been several versions ago, so I wanted to make sure it was still known.

[invisus]

I noticed this the other day on v1.0 a few zoom levels out from max zoom while in between two big power poles. I didn't take the time to test again with/without mods, etc, but when I do I'll come back to update.

I am encountering this issue in 2.0.10
