I see you used a Function Call to internals of GregTech, so instead of using the API Call, you copied the API Call, causing the Game to crash on startup, when adding a Crafting Recipe where the Character 'N' == null. I fixed the Crash by making a Dummy Function, which returns a Dummy Item, which is renamed to display the Error.
Just wanted to mention that.
where exactly did this happen so I can fix the code and actually run both mods?
Two different 1.5 versions crash on bootup, pretty sure it son my end since its both versions, but anybody have any idea what I'm doing wrong?
Doesn't really compete with existing designs. Its less power and less efficienct than the first reactor listed under full size, and way more expensive than the 0-running cost reactors.
Same output over time in 3.07, but the thorium cells need to be replaced twice as often.
Also, heat for thorium has gone down 20% compared to what the planner shows. You now only get 12 heat for a single thorium cell with 4 neighbours, which is very convenient because 12 happens to be the cooling capacity of two regular vents (or one advanced vent), and also the transfer capacity of a regular heat exchanger. Taking advantage of that, here is a reasonably-priced max size single-cell breeder that doesn't hurt you when you approach it, and here is a 4-chamber design that still manages the full 64 heating cell stack.
Redstoner's design with the five thorium cells will only need 32 instead of 39 cooling in 1.5.x versions, so Requia's variant can drop the extra heat exchanger. That still leaves it 4 cooling over the needed amount, but you can't drop a component vent or the overclocked vent will melt itself.
Oh, and the design with the diamond vent needs a diamond heat exchanger. At least according to the planner (repalce the breeding with 3 single cells for 12 heat), I can't quite figure out why though, might work in computer cube.
Ah, but you can replace the vent with a heat exchanger. Same amount of space but it'll heat up faster (also requires not putting it in too random of a space, needs enough plating to the left to ensure heat exchanger dumps heat into core).
I have a MkI single cell setup with 230 EU/t and 3.87 effeciency on the sticky...
How 'bout this Breeder? http://www.talonfiremage.pwp.blueyonder.…w8gnmhb573ylmef It's my first Breeder/reactor Design I ever made. Good or bad? What could be done better? I made this design because I were bored, not because I need it, I have good breeder.

If that's a 2.92 reactor, its not really any good, better to use hybreeders (even if lower output, they'll replace your regular reactors). If its for a different version, it won't work right ause of thorium nerfs... but still viable in 3.07 I think, just half the output?
It's actually cool but ... it's not the same balance than IC² (I know, BC and its addons are already a bit away from being balanced with IC² but ... with UE addons that's even worse)
I think the bigger problem is that it not only has a different balance, but repeats the same mechanisms IC2 has. With the exception of TE (which has config options to correct it, even if the major modpack makers are too braindead to use them), BC and its addons are doing fairly different things than IC2. They combine together in ludicrously powerful ways in some cases (automated scrapping+UUM production gets nuts without gregtech nerfs, or automated plant harvesting in order to spam generators), but its not a problem of BCs stuff being better, just different.
UE on the other hand, flat out tries to duplicate everything IC2 does, without any regard for balance with IC2. I suspect it'll be really good as a mostly standalone environment (which might be a good thing, it'll help when the way different parts fit together was intentional) once its had more time to grow, but it'll probably never work right with IC2.
Eff 7s are just useless in general, they cost too much, if you use UUM to make up the copper the efficiency drops all the way to 3.41 (less with thick reflectors, I'm assuming good automation though), not bad per se but you can get double the output and an overall efficiency of 4.23, so why bother.
Atomic Science? Last time I messed with UE the whole thing was pretty much unusable.
Display MoreI'm not ignoring the 3 out of 8 cells returned as depleted isotopes from the centrifuge... I never factor in 8 cells per centrifuge run to begin with.
My math assumes that you insert 5 re-enriched isotopes into the centrifuge and get out 1 plutonium and 4 thorium. True, in practical application you have to insert 8 isotopes and get a side product of 3 depleted ones, but those can be re-bred indefinitely. Therefore you don't actually lose or gain any reactor fuel, and the whole thing can be safely ignored. The only thing that counts is that through some process, the details of which are unimportant, the centrifuge converts exactly 5 isotopes into exactly 5 fuel cells with no loss beyond the cost of 100k EU per centrifuge run.
I'm also not factoring in breeding fuel costs because really, silktouching a single coal vein and throwing the blocks into an indsutrial grinder will give you enough thorium to breed hundreds upon hundreds of isotopes without ever touching your regular reactor fuel at all. Breeding is essentially free of charge beyond the initial build cost of the breeder reactor.
And yeah, that centrifuge recipe is very useful. Together with the fact that the industrial grinder will double uranium output from ore plus guaranteed plutonium dust, and gives guaranteed thorium dust from coal ore (you version's mileage may vary), you can still get a decent amount. You do however invariably end up with uranium cells that you need to run through a regular reactor.
The grinder is less practical. Maybe with thaumcraft AND redpower (and a shitload of patience trying to get silk touch). You've got to silk touch 32 uranium ore to get enough for a single cycle of that 8 plutonium reactor. It's good for very small reactors, run part time to keep storage full, nothing full size or run full time. (And breeding of course, a single thorium cell isn't going to break anybody's back).
Oh, I buggered up my earlier math, need to centrifuge way more isotope than I thought.
Oh, I forgot about this. Centrifuging 16 uranium dust nets 1 plutonium cell, 4 thorium cells, and 16 uranium cells. That triples the amount of plutonium/thorium available with the 8:1 recipe disabled.
I don;'t see why you shouldn't count the 3/8ths of a centrifuge that goes back to near depleted. I suppose we don't have 100% breeding anymore, which means there'll be a bit more loss reprocessing it, but its still much more accurate than ignoring nearly half the power output of centrifuged isotope.
I still get better than 10 for efficiency using the metric I use in post#3, so not as good, but its not as bad as i feared and we need to just use uranium either.
Cost to burn the fuel will be way up though, 7 of your reactors (three of the plutonium, 4 of the thorium, for stability) gives me 1896 EU/t, compared to a little over 2000 EU/t with 5 1.4.7 hybrids.
Plutonium and Thorium both last 25000 seconds now right?
Damn, that is good if so, It's not quite what multireactor 1.4.7 hybrids can pull off, but its better than the 367s. Still requires turning off that uranium-->depleted uranium flag, since it'd take multiple simultaneous quarries and a few uranium reactors to keep the thing fed otherwise.
I mean, with multipulse gone, I have no idea how much power Plutonium and Thorium make anymore.
Didn't even think of that, a plutonium quad cell is going to take roughly an entire quarry worth of uranium now (I do like the realism, but that recipe was the only think making nuclear a viable source of EU).
How much power are you talking about from the setups (lets assume that config is turned off).
He reduced uranium supply by 87%?
What the fuck Greg?
