Waiting to see Kibs hit the math about using all the Plutonium Waste vs SAM vs Sloops. I just finished my 1,800,000MW full nuclear facility and there were several surprises along the way. Was a lot of fun building the "solution".

[@owenbuckley705]

Cool to see someone else building a giant Terrawatt scale reactor, I'm only partway through building mine, but the plans are finalized at least.

[@5353Jumper]

@owenbuckley705 Spoilers... Would like to chat about how you are planning to handle the SAM use vs Sloop use when doing a zero Plutonium waste build? In my plan I used electric circuits to control the water pumps on small groups of Plutonium Generators so I could turn them off as needed, sinking all the overflow Plutonium rods to get rid of all the uranium waste. While minimizing the amount of Plutonium waste created needing to be converted to Ficsonium rods. Overflow SAM not used in Ficsonium flows over to the main base to use it for better things over there. I also anticipate moving sloops around the map in and out of machines to optimize the SAM use a little here, a little there. I forsee a lot of granular management in my future as I try to maximize Awesome Point generation balanced with power, SAM and Sloops. 😅

[@sunname6252]

My solution if I ever found the energy to actually make it a reality: Don't make Plutonium waste. 10 fueled Alien Gens brings no converter max uranium (50.4 rods/min) to 1,890,000MW all on its own.

[@5353Jumper]

@sunname6252 so use nearly all the Sloops in Alien Generators and not have them for doubling Ballistic Warp Drives.

[@gemmel3197]

I think your math is wrong. 254 Nuclear Power stations use all 2300 uranium. 254 NPS at 250% = 101.6 NPS. They need 600 water each which equals 60950 water. This is not including water used in construction parts which equals 2298 water.

[@NotMyActualName_]

I can't wait until kibz sits down and does the math to see how much ficsonium he's going to have to make in order to get rid of all the plutonium waste. It's a ridiculous amount and you need singularity cells for all of it, which means you need just insane amounts of everything. I suspect there isn't enough copper on the map to make all the pasta you'd need. It's way too expensive right now, they need to make ficsonium use up a LOT more nuclear waste otherwise it's just not worth ever using. Plus the process makes a ton of dark matter residue, which requires a TON of energy to convert directly into dark matter crystals just to sink it. So it really eats up all the power gains. In fact I don't see how it can even be energy positive by the time you factor everything in.

[@itsentdev]

im pretty sure he already did the maths

[@newsomething9437]

I agree. Currently Ficsonium is not worth the effort. I am also working on to use all the uranium and that is a huge project by it self.

[@keineangabe8993]

I am pretty sure, you are right that there are not enough resources for that. I am looking forward to his solution.

[@timmcgrath8742]

@@newsomething9437 it doesn't take that much effort, especially if you overclock. I needed just three particle accelerators to dispose of the waste from 16 Uranium PPlants. 4 Plutonium PPlants to use up the plutonium from the uranium waste. A further three PAcells to convert the plutonium waste into Ficsonium used in the six Quantum encoders used to generate Fics fuel rods and a further 11 NPplants to use up all Fics fuel rods. All the rest of the ingredients used are the by products of other processes and the Dark matter residue I wasted away in other processes. Overclocking does use a lot a power, so you are actually more power efficient building two of something rather than 100% overclocking it. I haven't sat and worked out what mathematically is required ( I don't play that way), but just built to use up what was being created and I have way more power than I have any need for (I only use Nuclear- no coal or fuel generators) I'm running about 200K MW. Granted 40K of that is from running unfed Power augmenters, because just having them unfed and connected to your power grid provides your grid with a 10% system wide bonus for each Augmenter connected. I'm not sinking anything, and I have no nuclear waste (Plut or Ur).

[@JamesKennedy33]

​@@itsentdevand we saw how Kibitz doing the maths goes in this video ;)

[@ultmateragnarok8376]

I was thinking from the start that a blueprint of just two water extractors and the platform separating them would probably have sped this up significantly. If it fits, you could blueprint four and their power pole, and including the pipes needed is just a given too. Would've saved a lot of time.

[@SaVaGeGmYbEaR]

I tried, there are some overlap issues with building water extractor platform blueprints. but I found a workaround of a spacer blueprint to put down the extractors, then replacing the platform around them.

[@greenscorpeon3]

Kibz is going to have a nuclear fallout after 15 min of his reactors running. That is the thing i learned from my last playthrough. Even if you designed your nuclear fuel factory to make X amount of fuel, but your current grid doesnt even need half of that power, just dont turn on all of the nuclear reactors yet and just sink the fuel rods. Else you will end up with so much waste so quick that you wont even have the time to make the next step of reprocessing that waste

[@loko8907rs]

@IamKibitz there is a nifty trick to lift all this water to high place without using single pump on all of those lines. It involves principal that the pressure spreads evenly in all directions. So you need to lift water with single pipe to a place higher than the place you intend to use all this water. Only this single pipe will use pumps. You fill a tank or more with this pipe. Then you drop down a pipe from the tank(s) and merge it with each end of your water pipes as through valve at each end. In that way you will have the pressure to lift the water in each pipe to wherever you want on the map as long as it is lower than the pressure tank(s), without using any pump!

[@Rwdphotos]

[@SpiffyChicken]

I ran into a similar problem placing a lot of water extractors down. I don't know what it is but I found that for water sources, holding ctrl or alt to align the extractor caused the elevation issue.

[@michaelm6597]

I spent a few weeks making one that used most of the map's U resources and a Pu cell recoup for the waste, and totaled 115 plants. This is about half the 250 you stated, (I worked the 60,000 cubic meters backwards to find the count of power plants) That build took me about 20 hours in game over nearly a month. (edit, after he corrected this to 125000 water in the last 2 minutes, that would mean 520 reactors... so mine is more like 1/4 instead of 1/2 in non-overclocked equivalencies)

[@DanielisAwesome52]

I've been scared to do nuclear cause it always seemed like such a big task, but for us regular folks just playing the game, one Node is more than enough and the factory/plant doesn't get that big.

Is a train carrying packaged water more energy and space efficient than the pipelines with all of the pumps? My thinking is that the packaged water option exceeds the pipeline throughput by quite a bit, i.e. each cargo platform can technically unload 2400 packaged water per minute with Mk6 belts with each output being routed into storage bins. That reduces a minimum of 4 pumps per cargo platform, but far more for each subsequent pump needed per pipe.
