#Long Reach
This is a very simple mod. It just sets the reach distance to a very large value.
##Rationale
Do you ever find it annoying that you're not quite close enough to something to place it? Are you playing marathon mode and constantly running around your base refilling chests in the early game? Would you prefer Factorio to play more like an RTS? This mod is for you.
If this mod is active, you can reach basically anything you can see in the viewport. In fact, you can reach much further than that, but since you can't scroll that far, you won't.
##Caveats
Why data-final-fixes.lua? I don't know. data.lua didn't work. Maybe some other
mod was overriding the player prototype. This mod tries to take precedence
over all other mods that affect the reach distance. If you don't want that, this
mod is not for you.
