Highlight power covered ghost buildings

Post by PollutionManifesto »

TL;DR
Ghost buildings that can receive power should be highlighted, just as their physical counterparts are, when in range of power poles in a player's hand.

What ?
Lack of highlighted power coverage for ghost buildings

Why ?
Currently ghosts do not get highlighted when in range of power. This makes planning with ghosts more difficult, as you'll need to manually check if the pole you place covers everything you need it to. Checking manually can also be difficult due to the low contrast between the cyan coverage box and the blue tinting on ghosts.
