When connecting a red or green wire between two power poles, the target power pole will highlight if it's the same type as the source pole, but it won't if it's a different type. Illustration:

Thank you for the report, the problem is fixed in 0.11.6 now.

I like how even the tiniest bugs will be fixed. This was something not even worth calling a bug (despite being one). ^^

I call this a normal bug, not game breaking, but it is, as the indication of the selection box shows if the entity is proper for the connection or not.

But yes, I like that the attention to detail is appreciated
