i recently went to use it and each time i placed or removed a block i would lag. its the only mod in the void world

3TW power output wile not necessary is nice for a planet power station. i made it for large projects so you dont have to keep building reactors.

@ NigthOps yup for my Air Conditioner and fridge fill with beer. :P

3TW power output, would it really ever be necessary to have that much?

i love partecle acelerator so the
n generate a lot of fuel perfec for my super rocket project

pending if you wish to do some twinkering or not a other solution could be to create a unique type of fuel by combining 2-3 element into 1 as to reduce the pure uranium base need for it

exemple for 2 element: Uranium / Magnesium, Uranium / iron...
exemple for 3 element: Uranium / coblat / silver....

but making a fuel cell to compansated the high uranium consumtion could also make it more multiplayer friendly.

I think that a good effeciancy ratio (to make it viable for- well, Any survival server) would be the consumption of 5 uranium per second at full power

Absolutely no server will allow you to refine a Million uranium units that would make this thing currently viable. At best you might get 15-50K uranium after mining Several deposits in space (which are very hard to find)

This isn't a gas powered generator (or hydrogen), its a Fusion / Particle accelerator (seeming as though it uses enriched uranium) so it should be pretty effeciant.

@Stotin you are correct it was balanced around normal reactors. I have no idea if the normal reactors are correct in real world but its the numbers the game used so i did basic math. I to think it uses fuel to fast but at this point its not worth it for me to change the numbers as i dont know what would be good balance.

@Era, it is acutally balanced around normal reactors as to generate the same amount of power from vanilla nuclear reactors it would take 833 uranium per second. So it is actually a little bit better in efficiency.

Looking over a fact sheet on fission reactors... 27,000 kg of Uranium will power a 1GW facility for 1 year.... so this thing is using a bit too much Uranium frankly (edited for accuracy, had 2700 kg before)
