Any way to hide electrical wires?

It's so ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥ ugly holy hell.

no. use prefabs. no wires needed (for the most part)

You can put them underground with the help of your manipulator...But that's nasty and time-consuming. There is a mod to hide wiring, but I don't know the name, it's mentioned somewhere recently, if I remember the post I will link.

Put them underground. I use lamps as power lines and make the wires a "feature".

There is a mod for that.

Prefabs ?? You need power solution for your teleporter and most devices, how will you do without wiring together, you mean the last Electromagnetic thing in the construction list ?

I'm hoping the current implementation of the wiring and power system as a whole, is just a first draft. There is so much room for improvement here.

Coming from ark, the wiring is pretty ok here and easy to hide if laid out well.

Same. I find it easy to clean up the wires into the structures.

Spanning long distances, 1/2 arches make good power poles - power lines "snap" which allows you to run to the foot of a pole, and along ground to tech/buildings.

Yea, cause this is how everyone will want their houses in the future, with wires all over the place instead of inside walls.

I've gotta agree, the wiring is pretty unsightly and just not good design.
And yes, "there's a mod for that" but we shouldn't be needing to rely on a mod for something that shouldn't be a feature in the first place, if we're honest here.

Indeed.

powered prefabs automatically power all modules that are inside them without wires
