NUCLEARCRAFT FISSION REACTOR MOST RF FULL

Just curious, I only browsed through the first initial pages and the last page, but couldn't find any designs for min-maxing the fission and fusion reactors. Yeh - take 'new' to mean better and 'experimental' to mean alpha. Perhaps different moderators and reflectors should have different stats, too.Īlso, in the next version of NC onward, beryllium blocks can be used in place of graphite as a moderator/reflector I also want to play with separating moderators and neutron reflectors.

After that, I may take a bit of inspiration from Big Reactors and try tinkering with making the use and depletion of fuel a continuous process - reactors with more cells would need more fuel in it at any given time to be full and generate the max amount of power. well, so far there isn't much as I've only just introduced the idea, but I will probably start with deprecating fuel rods and just making the fuel pellets what are inserted into the reactor. The additional heat generated by graphite is now proportional to the base heat of the fuel, rather than the base energy.Īs for the experimental changes. This is no longer the case with these new mechanics.ĥ. For some bizarre reason that I can't understand, I originally had the additional heat and energy generated by graphite be proportional to the number of cells in the reactor, which made no sense. Remember though - only the graphite directly adjacent to cells will generate additional power!Ĥ.

There can now be up to four (by default) graphite blocks between reactor cells, which should make cooler patterns a little more interesting. That is no longer possible - all coolers now have to touch other active coolers or the cells and graphite in some way.ģ. In the old system, you could just tessellate water and diamond coolers around the inner casing of the reactor without much thought or effort. Their rules, as well as others, have been changed to make other coolers the better option more often.Ģ. Before the change, some coolers, such as the quartz and liquid helium, were just appearing in too many of the good designs in testing.
