Compact Safe Thorium Reactor

It is possible to use logic to have safe reactors now with v6

A straight forward, 4x Thorium reactor setup with a liquid tank, a vault, and unloaders.

A phase conduit is used to prevent Thorium from entering, if there is a power drop, which will directly cause cryo-fluid to slow down

Always make sure to start titanium flow first, and add a diode to prevent drain!

2 Water drills creates +7.8*2 (15.6) water/s

For -12 water/s
-0.5 titanium/s (0.05 titanium belts or 1 titanium every 2 seconds)
1 Cryo mixer creates +12 cryo/s


4 reactors drain -2.4*4 (9.6) cryo/s
-(1/6)*4 thorium a second, or -2/3 thorium a second, (0.033333~ titanium belts or 2 thorium every 3 seconds)
Providing
+3144 energy/s (+4524 overdrived)


This leaves an extra +2.4 cryo/s and +3.6 water/s in liquids, giving a little bit of leeway to store cryo and sustain power unstability.


If power deficit gets too extreme, the phase conveyor will stop, and the thorium reactors will begin to burn the remaining thorium, +10 in the phase bridge, with one reactor turning off at a time, meaning cryo demand and power production will slower taper off, as it begins the shutdown process.

It will take roughly, 625 seconds or 10.4~ minutes to fully fill while in operation without overdrive, less time if overdrived.
If cryo production is stopped from, you will need roughly at least 90% tank to be safe. (if cryo is stopped, less if it's still running) Tested with phase overdrive.
