Realistic Reactors Revived deprecated


This mod adds a more realistic nuclear reactor, a breeder reactor and a cooling tower. The reactors are controllable via an integrated circuit interface, and have a dynamic output depending on their temperature. They need proper cooling, otherwise a nuclear meltdown will occur.

version 2.0.5   (2019-03-02)
- temporary 0.17 release for the forum
version 2.0.4   (2018-10-20)
- fixed a bug that prevented the ECCS fluid from changing it's temperature
  (as reported by AdmiralTigerclaw)
version 2.0.3   (2018-10-19)
- Added radiation damage for non-vanilla characters
- Initial fallout radius now depends on the fallout duration to match the radius when radiation has to be respawned 6 times
- Default neighbour check delay is now 45 ticks
- fixed a bug where deconstructing an entity request slot with the deconstruction planer crashed the game
  (as reported by Speadge and Mortico)

version 2.0.1   (2018-09-25)
- reactors can now be started and scramed with the status button in the gui
- ownly's formulas: fixed 2 of the plutonium cells being treated as mox, increased maximum efficiency a bit

- added gui for monitoring (click on the interface)
- added electric interface (energy consumption by starting phase, cooling and interface)
- new graphics for reactors and cooling tower
- added working lights
- added blueprint functionality (you need a constant combinator to build the interface)
- added a variety of configuration options
- added more meltdown options (mushroom cloud, permanent radiation, reactor ruins, sarcophagus)
