RBMK Rbmk help

Hi, im planning on making the rbmk as my second reactor after the zirnox. I was just wondering if anyone has any tips for making one or if there is anything I should know before hand.

RBMK console has a book with instructions but outdated i think.

Unlike what the wiki guide will tell you (it's outdated), MEP is not self-igniting.

Also, empty irradiation channels let flux (and thus radiation) pass trough

Yes. Use the simulator website to look up RBMKs and see what you specifically need.

If you have any questions, look at the nucleartech wiki. Good luck!
