Sort of. To clarify, whether their energy is connected or not doesn't change how much a player sends to overdrive. The grid only limits how much energy can be spent on metal extractors in the grid. Energy [i]is[/i] refunded back to the team if, due to poor grid connections, more energy is sent to overdrive than can be spent an all the mexes of the team.

[q]if one person has +5 net income he contributes some energy to the OD pool, but if another has -5, they cancel out in the scale of the team so nothing in the OD pool actually goes to OD.[/q]

I glanced at the code yesterday and couldn't see this part. I think it was removed in my most recent rework. If the team is making a net loss, and nobody is personally excessing, then I think everyone keeps their energy to themselves. I would want someone to run some tests to be sure though.

Both players would send nothing to overdrive under the old system, which is incorrect, as the team should be sending half a Singu to overdrive. This may have been noticed and fixed with some fudge at some point. I replaced the system though as it was causing energy fluctuation issues and only really existed to make energy sharing kick in earlier in some edge cases.
