I'd say it'd be a more useful tool to a longer term player than a griefer, as it should probably have a similar amount of uses, just be rechargeable. It'd be easier for a griefer to get a lava bucket or a real flint and tinder.

Just a flint/steel that runs off of electric. Probably would require a piece of cable, flint, and steel, maybe some wood as a "case" on the crafting grid.

Would you be willing to PM or share the design? I'm fairly tired of puttering around with this thing to find some magical way to shave off 6 or so more heat.
Edit: I would have never thought of that! I'll have to try it out once my current cycle finishes and cools down. Thanks! -
I designed this on my SMP server, well shielded (2-3 layers of reinforced stone in most places), and away from other players (due to heavy concerns about my reactor safety protocols. Real men don't use emergency shutdown switches!). Its primary function is to power 4 teleporters, each one connected to their own MFSU, each one going to a different person on the servers base of operations. It can run one full cycle without burning any components, but in early tests, evaporated the water around the reactor, this was fixed by raising the roof of the chamber and placing the water source blocks out of reach of the reactors heat. I use a small amount of glass fiber cable to run power to the MFSU's equally, each one being charged at approximately 20 EU/t while the reactor is running. The teleporters are further complimented by an array of 25 solar panels to pick up the slack a bit while the reactor is on cool down, or to handle light usage. The gold cable on the front fuels 2 short ranged teleporters that can teleport to my house, or take people from the base of the tower to the teleporter room. This reactor uses 8 fuel cells per cycle, which would work wonders on my uranium cell stockpile if I could find a breeder design for a separate reactor that allows me to fire it up and forget (as is, I trade resources to the other lower tier players in exchange for uranium). The link for the reactor design is here:

I was reading the wiki and it says that water blocks in a 3x3x3 area around the reactor contribute to cooling..does this mean within 3x3x3 of any chamber? Or just the central reactor block? Also, I was curious as to how many layers of reinforced stone is sufficient to contain a meltdown? Thanks!

I didn't put suggestion in because this is an area for a suggestion, therefore every thread started should be a suggestion, no? Anyway, I was aware of the secret gunpowder recipe, but it requires..stuff thats way more valuable for other things, seeing as you need redstone for almost every machine, and mass amounts of coaldust for industrial diamonds, carbon plates, solar panels, etc. Coal is way too valuable a resource to be used in something consumable like an explosive, especially considering you cannot macerate charcoal into coal dust.

Macerate netherrack into netherrack dust, combine on a crafting table with charcoal to make gunpowder.
