Reactors, batteries, energy backbones and energy transmitter nodes are responsible for the flow of energy.

  • They transfer energy from their buffer towards the outgoing connections.
  • In order to properly control the amount of transmitted energy each connection has a priority value.
  • Connections with higher the priority values - comparing to other priorities - will receive more energy.

Important: Energy priority is not a percentage and not an absolute value. Their ratio to each other defines the amount of energy to be transmitted to each target node.

The other important fact is that the energy stays in the source node's buffer if the target node doesn't require all the energy that falls onto it in a transmission cycle.
