Works great! Only issue is that it doesn't pass through any kind of non-physical decorations (ie grass).

Connected to. So yes that wouldn't pass through obstacles. It does NOT however, require detecting the collision point. If you put a PSB down (so the LPT is connected to it, and would transfer power if it had any) then simply looking at the LPT will tell you the distance.

I hadn't thought of the "goes through obstacles" thing, and that's a fair point, and another definite advantage of this mod over vanilla. The other being that you don't to do "trial and error" with guessing the distance till you get it right (i.e. when you place the PSB, look at the LPT and it says "connected to PSB at a distance of 50" when you need 52.)

The LPT collision point can be difficult to discern in some cases and doesn't pass through obstacles.

Ah, no. I'm saying that's how it works in vanilla *now.* No changes needed. LPT's already display the distance to the thing they're connected too. This works even if the LPT has no power.

I'm saying that this mod is somewhat redundant if you already know about that vanilla feature.

No. DJ is not accepting any more vanilla changes.

There's a way to do the same thing in vanilla?

The LPT's display the distance at which they're connected when you look at them, so just put a PSB in front of them, and move it until the displayed range is correct.

Advantages:
No mod needed.
You're already carrying both a LPT and PSB, so less inventory space used.

Disadvantages:
More fiddling (you have to manually move the PSB until range is corrent)
Limited to max distance of 64 blocks.
A little practice needed to get used to it. (The distance displayed is one less than the total distance taken by both machines and the space between them)

Ah, didn't know that. Thanks for the response!

It will be unloaded from Unity and vanish past 128m. GPS Tool is better for measuring such long distances.
wapachoo 2018. nov. 15., 19:35 
Unfortunate that this maxes out at 128m.

[R3MUS] XxBlackfootxX - You need to use the keypad +/- keys not the ones between zero and backspace.
