Construction Show Dome Passage Line

Description
Shows lines between domes when they're close enough for passages to connect.

I use straight lines, instead of the angled passages, so it isn't perfect.
There is a chance that you'll be able to connect a dome that's another 1-5 hexes further away (dependant on the angle).
The mod checks for Construction Extend Length and Longer Passages Tech mods and uses the extended length.
This doesn't take into account entrances, corners, or buildings.


Mod Options:
Show during construction: Disable it.
Adjust Line Length: I use a safe distance, you can increase it if you want (under 5 and corners may trip you up).


Known Issues:
Pause the game while placing if you have a lot of domes to speed it up.

Shows lines for placed construction sites (thanks 1647407137).

I think it should just work? I'll have to take a look.

Thank you for your reply

In my game, when one dome has been built and the other has not yet been built, lines can be displayed, but when both domes have not been built, lines will not be displayed.
This may be an option issue in the mod of my game, but I don't know how to change this option.
It seems that the paradox mod manager in the game cannot change any mod options

I take it you didn't look at the screenshots?

I hope that the lines can be displayed when placing two blueprints of the dome that have not yet started construction, in order to better plan the position of the dome

Should be good now.

Updated (pausing while placing helps as well).

I could only test on a 140 dome map, but it's improved.

Unfortunately I found this mod made my construction mode unresponsive, if you have a map with a lot of domes ( ~180 domes, ~3000 buildings, ~9000 colonists), however I imagine that's entirely expected given the amount of domes. Thank you for the effort anyway.
