I expected the reduced transmission efficiency, but I don't think an unpowered beacon should affect nearby machines at all. This behavior would be more fitting if you remove modules from the beacon but leave it powered on, but an unpowered beacon, imo, ought to not count into the diminishing returns.

What did you do?

Get into a train, drive the train over an elevated rail section, and use construction bots with a Power Armor MK2 and Personal Roboports

What happened?

The bots leave from and arrive back to location directly below the train.

What did you expect to happen instead? It might be ...

What did you do?

Placed an assembler set to copper wire with two beacons with speed module 2 in them, one on each side, and connected only the left one to power.

What happened?

The assembler received a +64% speed boost, instead of the expected 90% with one beacon.

So it's a feature then? Thanks for clarifying.

It's not really that much of an issue when playing, just a minor thing I encountered.

So, when the train had already planned out a path and it making its way there, taking out a block of rail in that path will disrupt it and causing it to have the "No Path" error. However, it does not coast forward ...
