Why was the Generator Repair Speed Red instead of Yellow?
I was playing Survivor earlier using Deja Vu and Prove Thyself.
I worked on a Deja Vu highlighted Generator with my teammate, who also had Deja Vu and, as a result of working with me, was affected by my Prove Thyself.
My understanding is we suffer a 15% speed reduction individually for co-op on a generator, thus the red repair bar
However, shouldn't our generator repair have been yellow?
-15 co-op
-15 co-op
+10 Prove Thyself
+10 Prove Thyself
+ 6 Deja Vu
+ 6 Deja Vu
= +2 Total

That's because they aren't additive bonuses, but multiplicative, and independent for each person.
So your personal modifiers are:
And since the base is 1 charge per second:
1 * .85 * 1.1 * 1.06 = 0.9911 total.
So since you're not above the 1 charge per second it shows a red bar. Your friend will have the same bonuses with the same buffs, so you're doing almost, but not quite, 2 charges per second on the gen together.
