Docked power is BROKEN:???

[Dire Venom]

Been doing some tests and Ive come across a bit of a nasty surprise.
(This was done in SP with default settings).
When my reactors were not docked to anything, they would transfer 1.8 mill power per second.
However, AS SOON as they were docked to another entity they transferred 30-40% LESS energy per second.
So I thought 'Thats odd' and went and built a couple more reactors and all got the same results.
I also tried changing what the docked reactor was docked to, but it didnt make any difference.
So is this a bug? A stealth nerf to docked reactors?? Or something else?
Could someone please explain to me whats going on here.

Thanks!

Are you using logic to activate the beams? T774
If so, you should pass on your findings. I don't think docking was considered and this new info may narrow down the source.

When testing I fired the beams manualy.
It seems like this is a bug so ill probably go make a post in the bugs section

hmm when firing manually vs firing with logic, logic tends to fire at a slower rate so it might send less. That said you did this totally manually both times right? If so definitely a bug.
