wats Hello there, I have a question; is the radius of power provided by wires adjustable?
I'm planing a realistic powah grids plugin.

Can this affect be applied to all of the power buildings?

Possible, but I see issues that may lead to undefined behavior.

Let's say we have two buildings A and B. A has a power radius of 10 while B has a power radius of 3. They stand in a distance in which A can deliver power to B, but not vise versa. So if A gets power it can deliver it to B so B is connected to A. However, if the power source is connected to B the power cannot reach A so A is not connected to B. I'm not sure whether this really is an issue, but it'll probably lead to confusion.

Hmm,I see it is probably a real pain to crate a system like that...
