    If anyone is curious the armor i am wearing is the Draconic armor with a new model that will be in the next release.

    As I didn't had sound on, here's what I got : -Mess with things -Startup the reactor -Don't do mess with the reactor or its power supply or your Minecraft world and your computer will explode

    I like how you can overpower this device and use it as mining tool
  • @HtotheG
    This is soo cool and really helped in my world! I love this mod and continue to be amazed by the changes. Keep up the good work.

    The explosion reminds me of cartoons where there is an explosion and then a thin pillar with a platform remains with the main character on it. 14:10 thats more like 200 chunk radius.

    Dang, I was super nervous to make mine, until I watched some tutorials and fiddled with one in a creative test world. After some poking and prodding, I realize it's actually quite simple: once it's activated, all you need to do is make sure that the power you're putting in is enough to keep the Field Strength above 1% (higher percentage if you want the buffer), and that the power you're taking out isn't enough to push the temperature beyond 8000. I started mine by inputting 140,000 RF/t while outputting 500,000. Assuming you have sufficient backlogged power to start the sucker up, these are safe numbers to let it settle at. Once your output (how much power you're extracting from the flux gate connected to the Stabilizer) matches the Generation Rate, the temperature will decrease, and the Field Strength will increase. If you're Field Strength is dropping and you're worried it'll go too low, add a little bit to the input (the flux gate connected to the Injector). If your Field Strength is too high, or the temperature is too low, then increase the amount of power you're pulling from it (typically, it's smarter/safer to make this adjustment by pulling more power from it rather than lowering the input, as lowering the input will only make the Field Strength drop, while increasing the output increases the temperature. This will still lower your Field Strength, but at a significantly lower rate). BE PATIENT. Wait for the temperature to start decreasing again before adjusting. In conclusion, my second sentence once again: All you need to do is make sure that the power you're putting in is enough to keep the Field Strength above 1% (higher percentage if you want more than a 1% buffer, which I recommend, just to be safe lol), and that the power you're taking out isn't enough to push the temperature beyond 8000. Message me if you have any questions; I think I've got a pretty good grasp of how these guys work, and I understand the hesitation to build it, but once you've got one stable, it's such a satisfying achievement! And, my goodness, does it crank out some power. As of this moment, I'm extracting 590,000 RF/t, I'm inputting 140,000 RF/t, Temperature is at about 7,900 (when the temp stops rising here I will increase my output to 595,000 RF/t) Field Strength is just under 14%, Energy Saturation is about 12%, and my Fuel Conversion level is at 1.82% (I'm using 8 blocks of Awakened Draconium).

    Finally, a tutorial that teaches me how to extract energy from the reactor. Thank you.
  • @Reaper17th
    Really glad I watched this before attmpting my usual strategy of trial and error... My entire base would have gone bye bye...10 ME drives with 10 64K drives in each...Thanks for the lesson and showing the consequences at the end as well.
  • @x_16v
    Every other tutorial either didn’t let me activate it or just flat out was unclear. Alas my reactor finally works! Thanks for a clear tutorial!

    me in MC... Big Reactors: *Sets up Reactor in a Big Open Room *Finishes the Multiblock *Connects to ME for Auto-In/Output *is Proud of Power :3 Draconic Reactor *Sets up Reactor faaaar away and above/under Base *Finishes Charging up *Starts Shivering *Checks all Connections/Flux Gates atleast 10 times *Turns Reactor on *Don't care about Energy Output... *cuz still alive after 10 sec. *Proud of OP Reactor :'3

    This whole mod is packed with nothing but awesome! Ty so much Brandon3055 for such as amazing mod :)
  • @xenulus5282
    I was like "wow this guy really seems like he knows what he's talking about...." Then I looked at who uploaded the video. Hehe, but of course!
  • @cageybee7221
    I think that you and azanor would get along very well and make an amazing mod together.
  • @fraznofire2508
    thank you so Much!!! you deserve another 10 million subs but I guess you'll have to deal with just one extra
  • @Shnellboot
    Thanks for the video mate! very informative and straightforward! Thumbs up from me :)
