Cosider next build: http://i61.tinypic.com/ayln9x.png Solar panels are filling accumulator by 300 kw (maximal charge rate), and at the same time accumulator is providing energy for 12 turrets and 6 combinators: 12 * 24 kw + 6 * 2 kw = 300 kw. According to this, accumulator should keep it energy at t...

Try putting down more accumulators and the results should match that of directly connecting to the steam engine.

After adding one more accumulator the result is the same as previous, although they have bigger flow limit (300x2>510).

Unfortunately topic is too short, so: "[0.12.0] Laser turret requires less energy when charging from steam engine" . I used for testing one steam engine with 10 hot water inside (Temperature: 100). First experiment: Steam engine converts energy from water to accumulator (10 water *85 J/wat...

Charged laser turrets consume less energy to keep full charged. Consider next two builds.
Note, in the second build all turrets are fully charged.

Expected behaviour: 22 turrets should slowly discharge

That's an inaccurate representation of energy production and usage - you're bypassing the input flow limit of the assembling machine by providing 2 different energy sources that both give up to the input flow limit of the machine. Try this setup and the results are identical between each assembling...

Electric consumption is done via this method: For each electric network: From all producers transfer to consumers Now, the reported information may be a little wrong but the consumption total for the entity remains the same and it doesn't use more power than is generated from the electric producing...

If you connect the substations, you get:

Energy from air. Profit

Machines incorrectly consume energy from two different electric networks.
Consider next build:


Current behaviour:


Expected behaviour:
Radar consume 60kW from each network.
