Hiding Power Lines

Is there a way to hide the power lines that connect power poles to each other?
I have a hidden entity power pole, but don't want to show the little orange lines.
The lines need to be there, but not visible.
Thanks.

The Greenhouse seems to have this property. No idea how it works however, since I never looked at the code.
That said, explain more clearly what you are trying to do, since there might be an easy solution.

LOL, thats my mod and I don't how to hide the lines. They are there on the greenhouses.
I'm adding hiden power poles to rail, but now the rail has a little orange line through them. No poles, just the connecting orange lines.

Wait what?
I guess thats what I get for answering without thinking.
In that case... Well, there was an electric train mod a while ago, with electrified track. Presumably it either didn't have that issue, or had poles next to the track for the visual....
Ya know, this reminds me of the time that
This happened.

They might have gotten it to work, based on the seperate Electric Rail entity, but I have no idea. Never tried it.
Hopefully it can be downloaded still..

Thanks Ranakarstrasz,
I found this in that mod, but does not seem to have any effect.
It defines the picture to be used, but not working for me.
Code: Select all
copper_wire_picture =
{
filename = "__Bio_Industries__/graphics/icons/trans.png",
priority = "very-low",
width = 1,
height = 1
},
wire_shadow_picture =
{
filename = "__Bio_Industries__/graphics/icons/trans.png",
priority = "very-low",
width = 1,
height = 1
},
