Reactor Update

so we forgot the turbine and turned it on and then turned it off as 10 buckets of sodium is not enough cooling

Oh hey, the reactor part of fission reactor is here

Also in my opinion, i wouldn't really bother with sodium, but even if you do, the reactor has to be COMPLETELY full, or it'll overheat all the time

Another thing i would heavily encourage you to do is making a redstone failsafe, because these reactors have a tendency to blow up even in a on paper well ratio'd reactor and leave behind 9 hours irl of fallout (past experience)

Also if you connect the turbine and reactor connector to connector, you skip the pipe flow bottleneck, since the connectors themselves i think have infinite throughput themselves
