Everyone knows this. You repair your tower and have full mana and then there's this 500 mana gem laying arround and is wasted. Because of repairing your tower you lost some mana and the 500 mana gem is pulled towards you and over 450 mana are lost.
Generally attraction to mana gems is lower the higher the value of the mana gem is. My suggestion would be to, in addition to this mechanic, lower the attraction to the mana gem if (mana.value > (player.maxMana - player.currentMana) (some pseudo code, but you know what i mean).
This would reduce the occurences of accidently absorbing mana and wasting it.
