IMPORTANT INFO:

This add-on is not compatible with bots! The reactor needs to be managed by a player!

It is recommended to not hoard empty fuel rods! Either drop them into the ocean, deconstruct them or refill them to reduce the performance impact if you're playing without lua installed.

An Enhanced Reactors Add-On:

You like the gameplay aspect of Enhanced Reactors, but you want just a little more to the reactor gameplay? Then the Reactor Management Add-On with its craftable reactor modules and fuel rod adjustments might be what you're looking for!

Fuel Rod Adjustments:

Fuel Rods have been reworked once more to provide less overall power for the reactor. That basically means depending on the fuel rod, you'll need multiple of them to have your reactor output its full power capacity. Here's a list of how they've been adjusted in relation to the maximum power of the reactors: ▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬

  • Reactor & Outpost Reactor:
  • - 1x Uranium Fuel Rod: 20%
  • - 1x Thorium Fuel Rod: 35%
  • - 1x Fulgurium Fuel Rod: 50%
  • - 1x Volatile Fulgurium Fuel Rod: 100%
  • Reactor (Mini):
  • - 1x Uranium Fuel Rod: 50%
  • - 1x Thorium Fuel Rod: 80%
  • - 1x Fulgurium Fuel Rod: 125%
  • - 1x Volatile Fulgurium Fuel Rod: 250%
  • Reactor (Small):
  • - 1x Uranium Fuel Rod: 40%
  • - 1x Thorium Fuel Rod: 70%
  • - 1x Fulgurium Fuel Rod: 100%
  • - 1x Volatile Fulgurium Fuel Rod: 200%
  • Slow Reactor:
  • - 1x Uranium Fuel Rod: 30%
  • - 1x Thorium Fuel Rod: 40%
  • - 1x Fulgurium Fuel Rod: 65%
  • - 1x Volatile Fulgurium Fuel Rod: 130%

▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬ To compensate for having to use multiple fuel rods, their lifetimes have also been adjusted as follows: ▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬

  • Uranium Fuel Rod:
  • - From 100hp to 200hp.
  • Thorium Fuel Rod:
  • - From 200hp to 300hp.
  • Fulgurium Fuel Rod:
  • - From 150hp to 350hp.
  • Volatile Fulgurium Fuel Rod:
  • - From 200 to 300hp.

▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬ Your fuel rod consumption will still be somewhat increased unless you make use of fulgurium or volatile fulgurium fuel rods.

Reactor Modules:

All reactors now feature an additional slot for modules. Modules can only be crafted and require expensive and harder to get materials, making them mid- to late-game items. Modules can be stored in crate shelfs and can be swapped in and out of the reactor whenever you want, even when the reactor is turned on. There are no dangers to module swapping. There are currently 4 modules available: ▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬

  • Extra Turbine:
  • Increases the effectiveness of fuel rods, resulting in less fuel rods required to reach the maximum power output.
  • Extra Shielding:
  • Fully prevents radiation from leaking out of the reactor, should it be damaged.
  • Fail-Safe CPU:
  • Adjusts the reactor to prevent it from entering a critical state after an unsuccessful repair attempt, basically allowing you to repair the reactor while it is on.
  • Meltdown Preventor:
  • Fully prevents a meltdown and the accompanied nuclear explosion, but the module will be destroyed in the process.
