Actual Reactors

Description
Description

Mod is discontinued for now, pick it apart or port it to a newer version, do as you please with it.

This is a simple mod that adds 5 reactors that simply generate a moderate amount of energy.

Each reactor is unlocked by its respective vanilla tech that adds the ship reactor components.

To build a reactor you must first build the Reactor Construction Site which is unlocked on game start by the Fission Reactor tech.
After you construct the site you can choose which reactor you can build so long as you've researched their respective tech.

Building stats:

Fusion Reactor: generates 25 energy and has an upkeep of 3 exotic gasses.
Cold Fusion Reactor: generates 35 energy and has an upkeep of 1 exotic gas.
Antimatter Reactor: generates 50 energy and has an upkeep of 1 volatile mote.
Zero Point Reactor: generates 75 energy and has no upkeep.
Dark Matter Reactor: generates 125 energy and has an upkeep of 0.25 dark matter.

Each reactor reduces the energy upkeep of buildings on planets starting from 2.5% and up to 25% and increase in Generator Districts from 1 to 5.
Each reactor also comes with some technician jobs to "keep it running". (not OP at all)

Also the mod unlocks the Bio Reactor for all empires to use. It is the only overwritten vanilla thing in the mod.

Compatibility
The only file the mod overwrites is the "03_resource_buildings.txt" file.
Best to put the mod at the end of the load order.

Bugs?
Feel free to leave any feedback and any questions or suggestions you might have, bug reports included.

does it have to overwrite an existing file or is it possible to make a mod doing the same thing without overwriting existing files?

Yep still works
Schizorin  [author] 17 Mar, 2023 @ 1:52am

This sounds really useful, kudos for making it. Doubt I could use it with my current modlist, but if I'm ever not using Giga/NSC it'll be great to have!

@samsockeater you have to downgrade back to the construction site and then choose the new reactor you want to build

seems bloody useful though regardless
samsockeater 11 Dec, 2022 @ 2:02am 
can you upgrade the reactors from lower tier to higher tier as well or can you only make them from the site?

For now the mod is complete and won't be receiving any content updates for a while, but perhaps in the future when I have more time and a little more experience with modding I might try to add compatibility with other mods. Thanks for understanding!
