Big Reactors Wiki & Guide
A guide to Big Reactors, a tech mod for building large multiblock fission Reactors and Reactor Turbines that generate power. Covers getting started, building and running a reactor, tuning output, turbines, and FAQ.
Overview
Big Reactors (the continuation of the classic Big Reactors, based on Extreme Reactors; mod id bigreactors) is a tech mod about large-scale power generation. You build big multiblock fission Reactors - hollow structures made of reactor casing with fuel rods running through the core and a controller on the wall - fuel them with Yellorium, and activate them to generate large amounts of power that is stored in an internal energy buffer and pulled out through power taps. Advanced setups run reactors in a steam mode and feed that steam into multiblock Reactor Turbines for even more output.
It is a deep, classic power-generation experience: start small, learn the multiblock, then scale up to bigger reactors and turbine halls. Big Reactors requires the ZeroCore2 library, which provides the multiblock and GUI systems it is built on.
