Long Description:
Nuclear Furnace needs for working "uranium-fuel-cell", it makes smelting with the same speed as blue express transport belt.
It has low efficiency, needs about 104 MW nuclear power and with one uranium fuel cell (8 GJ) it makes about 3000 smeltings.
Version history
0.0.4 - added support for Nuclear Fuel
0.0.3 - bug fixing: some extractors don't extracting empty fuel cells.
0.0.2 - added special inserter for removing used up cells from reactor.

Version 0.0.2: Added special inserter for extracting "used-up-uranium-fuel-cell" from entities.
Vanilla don't support assemblers and furnaces with burnt_result_inventory.

Ca. 10x more than normal furnace per Kilowatt. You are smelting ores direct on the nuclear core, without electricity and water as heat transferring.

I've tried the suggestion in line with these comments and no luck. The used fuel cells will not extract from the Nuclear Furnace - any ideas of anything else I can try? I love the new nuclear furnace and started building a whole base around them and got about 20+ hours into the map and found they don't work. Any suggestions?
Nope, sorry. That mod is included in these.
Use the correct inserter (outserter?) to extract the fuel cell.

Without another mods extractor (special inserter for extracting spent cells) works good. Tested on 0.16.20 with 0.0.2. https://imgur.com/L18Ggyq

Any ideas, I have updated the mod, made sure to use the correct inserter (extractor inserter) specifically from the nuclear furnace mod, tried the command listed above, and it still will not extract the used nuclear fuel cells from the furnace.

I have the problem of the fuel cell not able to be extract ( with the extrator and the good filter, multiples differents inserters )

Please don't set any filter. Please attach your save file, I can't reproduce this problem.

it's okey, it worked, maybe i really need to putt the furnace and the arms by hand.
another problem, i have the mod call something like " actual craft time " and it say when i am in the furnace, that it craft 33.33 plate every second, and a single blue belt is 40 item /second ^^
oh, and now i am trying with a mod call " nuclear fuel " wich add plutonium breeder fuel cell, those are not taken into account by yours robotic arms

There must be the same situation for manual and robot placing.
So, 0.0.4 - added support for Nuclear Fuel

thanks you so much to be so quick to respond, and what about the fact that the nuclear furnace don't process a full blue belt ? ( of iron ore to iron plate for exemple )

Did you try to use it with loaders?

i am using loaders so it's not a question of troughputt, i can't get a full blue belt out of it, that's all

yop, my bad, a single blue belt, it take it, but not two red or 4 yellow belt, it's more like 3 yellow or 1 red and a yellow ( to make it run at full speed ( the mod bottleneck ) )

Yellow belt = 13.33 items/s,
Red belt = 2 Yellow belts = 26.66 items/s,
Blue belt = 3 (!) Yellow belts = 40 items/sec.
I've made also Double Speed Belts mod, and only there it was balanced as 1-2-4(-8-16) (vanilla has 1-2-3 yellow belts speed).

Hello,
i came over from my question concerning the burnt result extraction.....
i have included your mod all clear for now....
But as you have placed this extraction-inserter under the nuclear-branch i may ask if its possible to place it at start, beside the burner inserter, or even without any research ?
I would think such an extraction-inserter would be a very standart inserter if one looks about the tech required....
I think the placement of a hardened extraction-inserter under nuclear is just as well ok, thinking about the radioactivity.....
