OK, this one is a silly one, but I'd still like it. Maybe others would.

I had a few of my machines standing alone, nothing hooked up, and I'd toss items into them. With the v9 textures, they look amazing while working.

Fast forward just a little bit and I have my setup built, with machines feeding into machines, pipes and tubes all over. I can't see the machinery in action any more. I realized I was wanting "floor models" like in a shop, but it would be annoying to keep them fed forever.

So, the request: A "Demonstration Upgrade" that simply makes the machine visually look like it's working, even when it is not. Up to you if it would take power or not.

It would look great in big factory room or scifi builds, and I think it would not be a complex bit of code.

This request has been added to the master list at #5320
