ScreenShot1.pngRunning the SS2 "Jamaica Plans by Fanciestmoon" City plan and after a few hours i noticed that there are no SS2 energy pylons or similar energy distributing items placed, so the Power produced by the SS2 Power plant plot inside the house has no way of distributing power because the only switch ive found is the vanilla blue one and trying to replace it with a SS2 one doesnt work because:

1: I dont know how that will interfere with the automatic city plan system (will it be removed/changed?)
2: I reached the build limit and no matter what item i scrap it still says i cant build anymore

Any Idea whats going on here?
 
You have a couple of ways of powering things without wires. Also I think there is a function that will lay out the wires in the holotape.

The way wires and power grids are in the game its just impossible to get them to save and work right (according to what Ive read). Id suggest trying the faux powered or self powered settings and see how that goes.

I did that already and outside the "infinite power" option i dont see how that would help me without at least 1 SS2 power switch option to even START wiring because the inside provided Power Plot building has no means of connecting anything to it which should mean the Standard City plan which is provided by SS2 is faulty/not up to date then and if thats the case i would just move on and scrap everything and build one myself/use a different plan and someone of the Team notes that down for a bugfix.

I haven't used the SS2 Basics Plan for Jamaica Plains for a while. I'll test this out and see what happens.

Update:
Ok, I tried this City Plan out tonight, and found that no Municipal Power Grid Pylon, or Municipal Power Grid Switchbox builds.
The Municipal Power Plot is inside the house as expected, but the place where I would expect a Municipal Power Grid Switchbox to be just has a Switch instead.
For me, though, the settlement was entirely wired up.

I would just replace that "Switch" with a "Municipal Power Grid Switchbox" and wire up the settlement.

I'll also log an issue for it, no ETA for fix.
