Overclock seems to behave very strangely. From the description, it sounds like you should regenerate 2 MP for every action that spends AP. And, it lasts for status ticks equal to 2x your MP.

However, I get really inconsistent results. If I walk a square, it will sometimes, but not always, grant me 2MP. But, it does always tick down a duration. There are other actions that seem to arbitrarily either grant the 2MP or not.

Bumping just to ask how Overclock is meant to work.

My char concept is pretty MP intensive, and I was planning on using Overclock to regenerate MP. If this is working as intended, I may need to rethink the character.

I'll have a look later, apologies for the response time.

No worries. You’ve been busy.

It seems to work most of the time, but will randomly decide to stop and stay stopped for a while.

I think it may happen when I am tapped into a font that is below it's max MP.

Will report more as I test more.

Looking at the code, it currently grants MP only for actions that trigger AP-spendy code - but it includes things that trigger AP-spendy code with an AP-spendy value of zero. I can’t reproduce the issue of it triggering on some moves but not others, because half-moves (from Fly, for instance) should be the aforementioned "spend zero AP" action.

It’s possible that some places in code tick down a status without trying to spend even zero AP, and that would result in losing a status tick of Overclock without gaining MP. Any reports of persistent actions that do this would be helpful.
