Re: Electric energy

... energy mod, I already made the uranium ore etc. Can we hope for a realistic mod? I mean including isotopes (you'd need the extra rare 235 uranium isotope to make nukes, making them hard to get and justify the ingame power they have), half lives, reactor cooling with control rods etc? I could lend a hand. No, do it! ^^ I guess it won't be implemented before a while, so that would be awesome you make it, and maybe that could help devs to implement it after that :) And if you already played MC with IC² ... think how fun Nuclear Reactor system was. Just add more realism, ore transmutation using nuclear reactions (would be too expensive IRL, but in factorio I think that would be fun ^^), chain reactions ... ^^ That would be EPIC nuclear ...

Re: Electric energy

... IV-VI From Uranium-based reactor to advanced reactor using Thorium, Nuclear Reactors are a very cool source of energy, however they can be quite dangerous: by exploding, but also because some generates Nuclear Waste, wich could have kind of negative effects on everything (makes tree not growing, is a bit poisonous ...). That's why you should really use Thorium one, wich are very efficient, consuming little amount of fuels ... Of course Nuclear Reactors are very expensive, but compared to other generators about the amount of energy they generate, they are quite cheap. Solar Pannels: IV (Thermals) V(photovoltaics). Thermal Solar Pannels are a good way to get infinite power, as they produce more than photovoltaic one, and are a bit easier to get in the Tech tree, but require Boiler and setup to generate energy. Windmills: IV-VII [VII= working in high atmosphere] Excellent source of energy, but a bit random. You should also build it on hills, and not surrounded by trees, to get their max efficiency ... Water Turbine: II-IV (depending on the efficiency) The cool thing with that ? Not only you can generate energy from lake by emptying it, but you can also ... refill the lake using powerfuls electricpumps! That turns lake into huge battery ^^ And then, once you've got a lot of stuff, and very advanced thechnologies, you might be able to build some awesome Thermonuclear Fusion Reactor ... but first, you'll need to destroy a lot of Alien bases, explore a lot of caves etc ... ^Nuclear: ...
