Torque System -- Power loss not functioning properly.

Was not seeing proper power loss from conduits on the test server (most had none). Need to ensure default values are set appropriately.
A: Was applying energy drain post-transfer, so often tiles would have zero drain as all of the energy was transferred.
B: Was not applying energy drain properly to flywheel blocks (only the controller was having drain applied, not the storage portion).
As a result, base efficiency of all tiles has been increased, as previously the power drain on some of the storage blocks when full would have been > than their maximum input capacity (for that same tier of controller).
Will re-examine power-drain mechanics to possibly rework something like:
at least two buffers, input energy buffer, and storage energy buffer.
transfer energy from storage to any output-connected tiles (apply energy drain during transfer!)
apply energy drain on storage; (constant drain)
transfer energy from input to storage;
