[0.13.3] Combinators have electricity forever

Post by Unic »

I have a Arithmetic Combinator that only should send a signal when it has power. It works for the first time, but after the power is switched off again, the combinator has a very small electricity left, but its enough to send the signal forever.

They don't shut off when out of power by design, they just re-send the previous signals so it doesn't completely screw circuit setups by running out of power.
If you want to get ahold of me I'm almost always on Discord.

The power for combinators is needed to make them process signals, not emit them.
