I've noticed that the red (and green) 'network' wires can be connected at any distance.

I'm assuming that this is a bug since the cursor turns into an x after you move a certain distance away. You also do not have to be within range to connect the wires.

P.S. just now noticed that you do not receive the wires back after picking up the poles they were connected to, not sure if that is a bug or not.

Resolved for the 0.2.9 release

You know, I never realized it but it does the same thing with poles to chests (not sure if that was intended lol) but it still happens in 2.10
