button to toggle the display of all turret ranges

[Nekochan]

Is there one or can there be one? Running the lines going pretty deep I have to either guess or count each block one at a time for full coverage of turrets. I would be nice to eye ball it by keeping the range display up.

would be nice indeed. tho just counting 30 blocks from teach T2 turret isnt that hard (gives a nice 10 block overlap)

Would be a bit easier if the lift had a "hold" option lol, atm I'm standing on top of my wall of transmittors and guessing since the moment I look away its gone.

just start your count with your build gun in hand from the turret, then place a block of some sort (like a snow block) to mark the position for the new gun. Rinse and repeate, its a simple thing if you are used to MC which you had to look at each block on your own, no square indicator like the build gun has.

Havn't touched MC since my mods stopped being supported lol, tells you what kind of game that it ;) I understand what you are syaing btw, I just want a quick looksy option.

I second.
Since defenses are cruicial for our survival, it'd be nice to have some TOGGLE button/action/setting/menu for such things as Turret's Range "Bubble".

I would LOVE an interface toggle to turn on and off the range indicaters for all ranged items... "Ctrl-E" while targeting an item could be that toggle... (Would be nice to change the hoppers to that as well so I can stop accidentally changing those configs as well)

maybe an option when your in that semi-holobase view. the one where you see your enviroment and the wireframe overlay.

Earlier I was trying to build the inital larger 'defense ring' around my base, consisting of at least 8 blocks of turrets with slightly overlapping ranges. Spacing them nicely is extremely tough without being able to keep those ranges in view.
