Factorio – Easy Pole Placement Over Long Distances

factorio

Whenever I want to place poles over long distances and try to maximize their wire distance to save poles, it is difficult to do so.

Is there anyway which allows you to hold down LMB and only place poles whenever the pole's wire reached their maximum distance?

That's exactly how the power poles work. Place one, hold down LMB, and move. Once you reach maximum distance, you'll automatically place another one.

One warning: the logic screws up when you get to somewhere that already has poles. So there, you'll have to manually place another pole to finish the connection.
