Under the advice of a couple of people here, I've decided to shelve the underground visualizations for now. They didn't look amazing, and have been an absolute PITA to get just a couple of them looking... passable. I might look into an alt-mode style view where each layer is visible, like how it is in the pipe placement mode. In the meantime, I've added a placement visualization, selection visualization, moved the selection box, and fixed a few visual issues with the system. Next up is scripting the layer switch mechanic, and getting it published.

#

I'm also thinking about shrinking the underground visualizations by 5-10% to make them more visually different, especially since the other visualizations are already a bit smaller

Looking at my scripting... it's definitely not multiplayer compatible or desync proof. I'ts gonna need a few rewrites before it's workable

Very cool

Wow, this is really cool

#

Are these underground pipes a different type of pipe? Or does an underground just switch you to working down there?

#

And does this also work for belts?

#

The pipe to ground switches between the two layers, but in reality the underground pipe is a normal pipe with no collisions and a custom connection category so it only connects to itself and pipe to grounds

#

It does not work for belts, i spent more time than i care to admit and found many strange bugs and interactions trying to get it to work

#

Does that answer your questions @muted bramble ?

This will eventually feature full support for color coded pipes, NPT, and more!
