If you hold down the left mouse button with a power pole selected, the game is supposed to autoplace enough power poles so all entities are powered.

However, as shown in the attached video, the top right inserter does not get powered, even though it should.

Note that if I move the mouse so it does not enter the right column in the tile where the power pole should be placed, it will get placed correctly.

Thanks for the report, I'm surprised it wasn't reported for such a long time, since the bug is there since forever.

Fixed for 1.1.12

Thanks for the fix .

We have known about this bug for some time. But AntiElitz thought that this bug was covered by one of the other power pole bug reports, so we did not report it separately.

The bug has not been there "forever" (I don't know how literally you meant that). Nefrums has used that power pole placement pattern without meeting the bug not too long ago.
