Description

Adds an atlantum reactor that consumes Atlantum Mixture Brick and Shiverthorn Coolant to produce power.

Stop reading if you want to avoid even minor spoilers

The reactor generates a lot of power, so it is expensive to start up. Interact with the base of the reactor to view the GUI. This will show you the current item that you should feed it with inserters. Once a stage is complete, the next stage will unlock and the requierd item will change. Once all stages are complete, click the 'Ignite' button to start generating power. The reactor consumes 5MW of power during the startup phase.

Once ignited, the reactor will generate a base amount of 20MW. Feeding the reactor Shiverthorn Coolant will let it generate more power. Once per minute, the reactor checks how much Shiverthorn Coolant is in its inventory and consumes it all, plus one Atlantum Mixture Brick. Each coolant provides a 2.5% (of base) power boost, up to 500 coolant. This allows a single reactor to generate up to 270MW. These values are also multiplied by your power boosting Technologies.
