Wow, looking forward to try this. I'm yet to make a nuclear power plant on this game, but now I'm more motivated. If possible, try to make it in a way that when all the chain is done, it looks amazing and realistic.

I mean, things going from one machine to the other and all. I wanna use this on my crazy map "Going Nutz". :)

As I'm yet to really do a proper nuclear plant and also use this mod and see the changes, I might be asking what it already does. I'll give more input once I've tested both vanilla and the mod.....

There will probably be some pretty long production chains when I get around to making a bit more Plutonium related things

Hello, I have a few questions.

What's the intention of this mod in comparison to something like uranium power? More or less complex?

Will there be custom entities besides cooling towers? Will there be meltdowns without them?

What do you mean by closed cycle power plants?

Cheers.

Hi!
The mod is a bit less complex, and more vanilla-like than Uranium Power. As for custom entities, I'm not planning on adding anything other than cooling towers yet. The cooling towers will be used for converting steam back to water so you can build power plants without an external water supply (closed cycle plants), and if the Meltdown mod is installed, for cooling reactors to prevent meltdowns.

Compatibility report: I use the mod Resource Spawner Overhaul and get a console log output from it with your mod enabled: "The resource fluorine-ore is not configured in RSO. It won't be spawned!" Not sure what's needed so your new resource gets spawned by RSO.

EDIT: Ah, nevermind... just read through description of RSO mod and the author of that mod will need to add support in RSO itself. Going to post over there.

I've added config for the ore.
Please take a look and tell me if ore amount in starting area and further on looks sensible and let me know. You can also take a look at config file and tweak it and I'll update it in RSO. (File is in resourceconfigs folder named sigmaonenuclear.lua)

The amounts seem reasonable to me.

a Hexafluoride phase Just one? Why not go full fatmice and spin the thing 8 times or more through a centrifuge with products looping back and forth...

I wanted to still keep the mod kind of vanilla-like, and not quite as complicated as Uranium Power, while still complicating it a bit from vanilla. I might consider making some more phases to the production still.

Greetings. I wanted to ask if this mod would be compatible with pclance_reactors (https://mods.factorio.com/mods/pclance/Pclance_Reactors) or have it's own logic network interface. After playing around with it for a few weeks, I find it very convenient to keep your temperature stable by controlling the reactor's performance and cooling tower pumps via logical circuits.

Right now my mod should be compatible if Pclance_Reactors doesn't modify the fuel cells or their production.

As far as I was able to experience I believe it only adds a circuit interface to the reactor itself and you can control the fuel consumption rate to balance the temperature out. I'll give it a go with the two together!

I was wondering if you could post the production chain? Either as text or picture form, please.

Does it work with the fluorite from Angel's Refining mod?
