About Wire Box Tool (Auto-Wire Poles)
From Factorio Mod PortalProvides a tool you can drag over power poles to add green & red wires to existing copper-wire connections.
Provides a tool on the shortcut bar to add red & green wires to existing connections.
Just drag the tool over power poles. It will then add red & green wires to all power poles with existing copper wire connections. Nothing will be altered for the poles outside the connection box. The wires have no cost.
I copied the graphics from the Power Grid Comb mod so those are under his licence. Everything else is MIT.
There's a per-player option top change which wires (red/green/both) are placed by the tool.
