Hello!
I was just playing some Creeper world arc eternal
and came across mildly annoying thing with quickly spamming lots of collectors: Half of them wouldn't be connected to the supply route, leaving pockets of unbuilt collectors here and there.
So I thought forcing (Shift + click for example) buildings to be built within connection range of another building would be a great addition to the new game!

This was bothering me enough to go through the registration process ;D

p.s. I'm very excited for CW4!

It's not a perfect solution on uneven terrain, but you can click-and-drag to place properly-spaced line.
A narrative is a lightly-marked path to another reality.

Oh my god! I did not know that. I love it thank you ;D
I guess it could be improved by making it possible to free-hand the blueprints on even spaces but then I don't know how much work that would require and the current thing works well enough for me
