Also, are they going to have smaller collision boxes rather than having the cables taking up one block with a large amount of space around it. Bit like Buildcraft pipes would be good.
Alblaka replied to this early on after 0.9 was released, saying he didn't think it was possible. When someone pointed to the fact that buildcraft pipes were fixed in 2.1.1, he replied saying he might talk to Spacetoad to see how he did it.
I agree, it'd be nice if they were smaller hitboxes.
I too would like the hit boxes to be equivalent to their visible size.
as it is quite annoying trying to access a machine when you can see it but it is behind the invisible part of the connecting cable
Fixed for the next release. That was a hard one
