About SigmaOne's Mods: Nuclear

From Factorio Mod Portal

Makes nuclear fuel, and some other uranium-related item production a bit more complex and immersive.

Description #

Note: Longer description on the forum thread ##

This is a mod that makes nuclear items production a bit more complicated. This is accomplished by adding a Hexafluoride phase to the production, which requires Fluorine to be mined. The mod also removes Kovarex Enrichment Process, and replaces it with making new fuel cells with plutonium recovered from depleted fuel. Atomic Bombs are also changed to use Plutonium in place of U-235. Let me know of any suggestions in the discussions, or on the mod's forum thread.

Notes #

I recommend using Ingo's Realistic Reactors mod for an even better experience.
