My simple induction matrix is in a chunk loaded area. Unfortunately once the last user logs out of the server, it dismantles the multiblock structure causing all the cables attached to disconnect.

Upon login, the matrix re-assembles showing the red particle effect, but all the energy that was being pumped into it was wasted.

I can confirm that I see the red particle effect on login, but I have not confirmed whether it is actually disassembled or if that is simply the client reacting wrongly.

After spending quite some time trying this out in several environments, it appears that in chunkloaded areas, the disconnect is a graphics glitch. I'd probably put this as a very low priority.
