Space platform - Circuit connection distance / Electric poles

Post by yngndrw »

TL;DR
  • Longer range for circuit connections in space
  • Remove automatic copper connection for electric poles in space
What?
Vastly increase the maximum connection distance for circuits in space - Both for electric poles and direct machine interconnection.

Also, remove automatic copper connection for electric poles in space as this isn't required, everything naturally shares a power grid.
Why?
The connection distance on space platforms is insufficient, as you can't directly connect two non-overlapping collectors. The "lore" for this is that the reduced gravity allows for much longer connections.

Copper connections are meaningless on space platforms, they only add visual clutter.
