Power lines using the (excellent) transport system

35 votes

I'm a little disappointed by the absence of a power distribution system, since the foundation for something great has seemingly already been implemented. Power line tiers could operate like pipes to distribute electrical power from producers to consumers (like the residential transformer).

ok look at this maby a above head power option with limited transfer rate and connects to the top of machines and has a limited amount of connections to leave more space for conveyer belts and roads for the future, unless underground power is mentioned
this is all based players that build as neat as posible

Honestly think this is a bad idea. When you have a few hundred buildings on the map with tons of belts and pipes going across the whole island, adding power lines everywhere will just clutter up the map. Would also have to consider the overhead clearance of tall buildings and excavators.
