I was experimenting on the Ic2 Reactor Planner and I stumbled across this setup. Apparently it makes 14 MILLION Eu per cycle and doesn't explode... or does it? Also, if it actually is a terrible reactor and i'm just really bad at reading the software's info, can you recommend a good setup?
I just wanted to double check to make sure it won't destroy everything I love (Kidding) if I use it as I am not very skilled when it comes to the reactor planning software. Here's the link.
Thanks!

Note: I am not sure if this goes here, if it doesn't please move it :/

Here is another design, quickly cobbled together, that produces more energy per uranium (see the higher number in the efficiency?) and won't use any single coolants like the 60k coolant cells you used: http://www.talonfiremage.pwp.blueyo...wlpu909mvjwf2n055zx3nnxcd7uwvthqxiv4e5482v2f4

Here is another version with even higher efficiency, but it uses quad uranium cells, which need additional copper in their crafting process: http://www.talonfiremage.pwp.blueyo...6kj41ixdcj6lv39wdz9zu8m9jfjewtqq6zedj1wj4xssg

Okay, thanks for helping. I'll check them all out. I have supplies galore so that won't be a problem (2nd Link) :p

agreed

its the best link I have found anywhere for designs.

The only thing I would add is the long term use of the reactor

Is my current reactor as it's pimp (bloody expensive but Pimp, I didn't realise the cost of the reflectors until too late)

I realised when I started using it that the quad cells mean I am burning through 320 copper a day! just to keep the quads churning in and out....I switched down to the duals as they only burn 80/day which is much more manageable

as fun as reactors are - make sure you factor in the running costs and how often you will be runnning the power. guy on my server has a huge multi quad cell reactor which produces obscene amounts of power BUT he is using 1200 copper if he wants to run for 24 hors which is way too much imo

You do know you can test it in another creative world if you are that worried...

Best way to test if the configuration will explode.
