If the power provider (I only tested with 1) loses all electricity, nothing changes in the electric locomotives - they still can drive as much as you want, their "fuel level" remains full. This is too much cheating. By contrast, if the power provider itself is removed, the locomotives lose spend their "fuel" very quickly (as expected); I thought the same should happen when it's depowered.

Found under Factorio 0.17.36.

Thanks, but I know it. This bug has crept in during the last update.

i have the same problem, also nothing changes in locomotives if power provider receives not enough electricity, it seems like power provider energy capacity can be below zero
