Two reactor questions

Nik · Jan 28th 2012

1. How long does it take to change depleted Isotope cells into re-enriched uranium cells? I had a go with a breeder design in creative mode, after adding about 3-4 lava buckets they were converted in just seconds. I figure that can't be right.

2. What kind of reactor should I build in my SSP game? I was thinking a SUC/CASUC type (The EU produced would be amazing), but I read that they've got some real stability issues. I'd prefer to have a reliable reactor that doesn't blow half my base to bits. What do you lot think?

1: a cycle or 3 depends on your setup

2: id sugeest most efficient reactoer than can run for atleast 1 cycle

I have no experience with breeders, sorry. I run buildcraft quarries so have enough uranium hanging around to feed my power needs

Check out this thread from yesterday. In it I link two designs. One is a cheap, single-core setup that will run continuously and the other is a more expensive reactor that remains very simple to keep under control. Complete with pictures!
