@HeyItzJace_ The exposion from this reactor will remove both obsidain and water Look up a dragonic recator meltdown and youll see what the conequence is for Fucking up is
IMPORTANT!! One quick note on the chaos element and fuel longevity: I said in the video that it was not a tangible resource but this is not the case. Once you power down the reactor after running it for an extended period of time, you will need to eject chaos fragments out of the reactor in order to make room for new fuel. Also, the CC program stated that I had over 99% of fuel in the reactor but this also turned out not to be true. Once the conversion levels rise around 80-90% (as explained in the video), you'll NEED to refuel or risk an explosion. The "remaining fuel" gauge on the CC program interface is NOT an indication of how long the reactor can still safely run so DO NOT TRUST THIS. Refer to the fuel conversion ratio inside the reactor's GUI to accurately measure the time remaining on your fuel. In this example, my high output (very inefficient reactor) was only able to last a little over two weeks before a refuel was needed. Lower-output reactors that are more efficient will last longer.
I love the fact that you included the explosion at the end! That was quite a hole it made. Would be an OP use as TNT but a bit pricey lol. Also Thank you so much for the tutorials. Always well explained and nice n neat set ups. Although some of these are a bit outdated and the mod developers threw us a few curveballs by changing some of the required blocks and machines used in the tutorials so I had to find a way around those. For example the wither boss farm and autonomous activators which no longer seem to exist. I ended up going old school and just using dispensers, so it is semi automatic by manually flipping a lever, which I probably could build a timer and automate :)
Doesn't seem to bad actually. I'm going to attempt to set it up using Integrated Dynamics. The mod seems to have enough programmability to use it in this reactor setup.
@@rest.jailbreak Yeah ET Solar can produce much more RF/t than this reactor and doesn't cost 5 Chaos shards. Although, on my server I changed the config so the reactor makes 10x the power due to its risk, complexity, and cost.
I looked over the code of the program and spottet a possible mistake, fuelPercent = 100 - math.ceil(ri.fuelConversion / ri.maxFuelConversion * 100)*.01 why ist there a "*.01" this messes up the actual fuel left so in this case u didn't use 0.77% fuel but rather 77% fuel, this would also make sense with the actual reactor numbers as shown in the interface.
**LIKE! This makes prefect sense. So when my reactor was reading out at 99.23% fuel remaining, it was actually supposed to be 23% fuel remaining which would match my fuel conversion ratio. Nice fine, thank you!
For anyone playing 1.7.10 ftb infinity evolved (3.0.2) and having an issue with keeping the Field Strength at 50% this is how we did it. i.imgur.com/vOdmLtF.png basically remove the bottom tesseract and link with cryo fluxduct. Don't know if there is an issue with how gates react with tesseracts now but this seemed to fix it for us.
I feel like joining an FTB Revelation SMP and then being an evil villain who taxes everyone on the server and then making this reactor on it just to overload it after watching this.
And I feel like joining that server and working for that person, helping them collect taxes, while also making my own court and maybe make a casino in another life.
As I was thinking: You guys, are THE BEST EVER! Please! Make the tutorial that I was looking for: How to make a Self-sustaining Fusion Reactor from ReactorCraft! It, also, produces a ridiculous amount of power. Almost the same amount seen in this video.
I feel like this just doesnt belong in minecraft, such a complicated chaotic thing, it could blow up and boom goodbye everything you ever loved (I love it)
For those who are too scared of explosions from the draconic reactor, you could try using a tesseract inside of a spatial pylon and just shove it in there. I'm aware this adds another mod: applied energistics but the ME system is also cool. You also might wanna set up a dislocator portal both in your base and the storage system. You also probably want a chunkloader.
This is a good tutorial, but i feel it lacks in actually showing the whole setup process. Currently, I have set this up in a Server and the automatic mode for the RF Input is failing. Which causing the Field Strength to drain to 15%. Which causes the CC program to use a fail safe.
@@thatsajokek7806 I watched this video a couple years ago or so and used the script, I had the same issue, but managed to fix it by poking around in the program, not sure what I changed, but I think I changed the calculation used for the autoInputGate fluxval, right above the safeguards section, `fluxval = ri.fieldDrainRate / (1 - (targetStrength/100) )`
If someone still has the problem with a blinking monitor (like me), you can edit the programm to rise the sleep time between the screenupdates. All you have to do is: 1) If your reactor is online -> shut it down!! 2) right click the advanced computer running the program, then press and hold "ctrl + T" until the program is terminated. 3) now, you can type: "edit startup" and scroll down to the end of the file, where you can find the "sleep (0.1)" command. Edit this value to 0.5 4) press "ctrl" to enter the menu, save the file, exit the editor and restart the program by typing "startup" into the console 5) Enjoy a non-blinking monitor :) I can not guarantee this as a solution for everyone, but it was a good solution for me.
Of course a slower update rate will reduce the flickering. However the best solution is to avoid clearing the monitor at all. It's better to just overwrite each line with the new content. Of course you have to make sure you write out enough spaces before / after the new text in order to clear out the previous content. This will completely remove any flickering. Though this requires a few more adjustments ^^. I haven't built a reactor yet, so i wasn't in need of a control program. However for me the fun in playing MC is to write my programs myself ^^.
You can find the java source code of draconic evolution (the reactor's mod) online. I did the hard math an reverse engineering a few years ago to push the reactor to the limit.
Thank you for blowing it up ,now i know how far away to build this thing from my base. would you mind posting a block count in a cardenal direction of the blast radius ,it looked to be about 50-60 blocks from center.
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).
Rustin Pevehouse I'm only using the flux gates... Stoneblock 2 doesn't have OpenComputers, and I have no experience with code or mods of the like, so I'm using it in a super rudimentary fashion
Oh btw, in 1.10, the reactor itself does have an option to SCRAM when it ether is about to explode, the Energy Saturation reaches 99%, or the fuel decreases to an unstable level. Plus, it has a ultimate failsafe where it hardwires it's generation to it's containment field and gives you time to stuff your disks into a strongbox and vanish before firey, pyrotheum filled crater.
In my private server, I only fuel my reactor to about 50% awakened draconium but it tends to become unstable at 3.26M rf/t and I have 3 of them so I think it's safe to have many of these
@@Flxvideo I got you. I can explain how to get the script working for ComputerCraft if you'd like. I'm also uploading my world with everything working to Planet Minecraft here in the next few days. Be sure to keep a lookout for that to see a full example of how to set it all up.
Took me ages to get it up and running at a good capacity. Lot's of daily tweaking. (As I am dumb and couldn't figure out a good auto regulation method.Computercraft, etc.)
I need help with the field strength. I turn the reactor on and the strength just keeps dropping and when it hits 15% it charges again. I don't know how to get the field to stay a 50%
set targetStrenght in line 5 up to 85% ...just a simple solution that the generator dont drops under the 15% and start charging again and again. i dont know where i have to change something that i can target the fieldstrenght i've chosen in line 5 but it should be the formula in line 280 with a little mistake
Solved! Issue with "startup" error message: "startup:178: attempt to concatenate string and boolean" Edit startup, Line 178 reads "print (k . . ": " . . v) Should read "print (k . . ": " , v) Fixed! I don't have any experience in "code writing" but was determined to find the "fix" due to the sear desire to use this specific program for my reactor spotlighted in this video. So yeah... if anyone has this issue, hope this solves it. :)
I am curious about the times of a reactor going from perfectly safe to the explosion as a form of self-destruction system. Say you have your base set up to where you absolutely do not want a faction to take hold of the station. One method of avoiding the enemy from capturing the base and such a high-end reactor would be to set an automated system to detonate the reactor. Would you happen to know the times to go from safe to detonation?
@@nathanpfirman625 yeeeees, but still it can be weaponized as a bomb, a really damn good one too I might add. Not to mention, that's what they used to blow up the Nostromo, her self destruct sequence was overloading the reactor until it went critical
@@nathanpfirman625 By the way that's the basis for the self-destruct sequence I thought of doing when I made my initial comment. I got the sound files, just gotta mod in the sounds and figure out how long it takes on average for a draconic reactor to blow
although playing on a factions server this goes from energy gen too nuclear bomb! able too devastate multi BILLION dollar bases in a matter of moments.
@@TheMindCrafters there are ways to update the existing code to use in 1.18 but it's very buggy, the worst part is the constant screen flicker which occurs every tick, making the interactable screen useless, not to mention the values that have essentially been amplified by 10x for both output in FE and fuel conversion. likely someone will have to sit down and rebuild a whole new program that works with the reworked reactor
Protip with reactor: never build in the overworld, build in another dimension if it somehow destabilizes either via server bug or your own mess up, it won't destroy your base or everyone else's.
I know it's been years but if anybody wants to know how to do this without computercraft: - Make the output flux gate 537,000 RF/t - Make a comparator run out of the Energy injector - Set "Redstone mode" to "Sheild-" - Make the input flux gate 222,000 Rf/t High, 0 RF/t Low - Connect the Comparator signal to the input flux gate with redstone and more comparators if needed. INSURE THAT NO REDSTONE SIGNAL IS LOST. Thats it! The flow gate will automatically put around 175k rf/t in the reactor and will pull out 537k rf/t
i would gather all the materials, and build the reactor for that one guy on the server who keeps sneaking into my base somehow and stealing all my cookies to just give him wrong instructions on how to handle the reactor and watch Hiroshima 2.0 from my base while eating popcorn XD
I gues I understand why a server might ban it, while almost entirely safe, if something goes wrong it creates a massive explosion that cant be contained
Hey, I know this may sound odd, but what happens if you are playing this on skyblock and don't have computercraft as part of the mod pack? How would you balance out the input output with just the flux gates DE provides? Because when i just use the Flux gates, the Shield energy input keeps going down.
I'm having trouble with 2 things. 1. My tesseracts are set to their respective frequencies but when I scroll over them the GUI says frequency 0, but when I open it it says set to frequency 2. And then when i activate my reactor the rf/t slowly falls until it hits 1 rf/t, do I need to adjust my flux gates for that?
19:01 it says: "Increased containment field load" so the containment field should be weaker, since it now has to support a heavier load. So why is the containment arrow going up?
Do you have a video that shows the placement of each block of the reactor being built ? I am trying to follow what you have, but I am not sure how some of the blocks get placed just from looking at the set up already completed. Mainly the flux gate and the tesseracts
Need a short answer about the working of the reactor from anyone who ever used it, even in creative! We just reached the point on our server to begin contemplating should we try to build one. The facts we know: -it need awakened draconium blocks as fuel, which cannot be automatically produced as far as we know -then it produces ludicrous amounts of power The question is: is this reactor only does this? I mean if it makes chaos shards as a byproduct, or makes a magic field which helps, or something like that, then it _may_ have some meaning. But for getting a lot of energy, even IC2 reactor is safer, and can be automated. If you have time to answer this, thanks!
When I click charge reactor nothing happens and it stays in the charging state can you help me Edit - figured it out apparently I just had to make the whole computer craft thing on the east reactor stabilizer
Ummmmmmmm, what if it came into the wrong hands? (Btw i’m TOOOTALLLY not talking about Disguised Toast and his plan next saturday that i have heard a little bit about)
I added a Scram button to the flux gate. When i press it the gate is going to stop being powered so it will immediately bump up the saturation to over 7O%
Yes, very helpfull. Im not a hater, but i do understand where the haters come from. My question is, what will you ever do with 2million rf/t... Thing is for me personally, i loathe computercraft. I hate it with a passion. I refuse to ever use it. I'd be far more interested in the redstone logic behind running it. Nevertheless, good tutorial. Keep em coming!
Sure, you can put redstone signals and the power itself through tunnels that are part of a applied energistics system, but the AE system cant really be used to control it. Im guessing that redstone comparators can emit a redstone signal with various strengths based on the output of the reactor, and control it that way. I suppose with hoppers you could then control it through AE... Needlessly complicated.
So over-explained to say: Demand stuff from it, it'll slowly catch up. Just don't overheat it or starve it from RF while it's catching up. How much it can catch up is how much saturation's available. As it catches up to higher demand, that's displayed by the "fuel conversion".

@@henriks2708 but its very long so long that u can pull out trillion of rf and few day
Thank you for the google slide class presentation
Achievement hunters PROBABLY should have watched your video before constructing one. Literally blew up the same episode they constructed one.
I'd try making an auto-refueling system that auto-prevents it from exploding.
When I write '> startup' advanced computer shows me 'No such program'. What can I do to repair this? Do you know what am I doing wrong? Please help.
same here :(
@@Flxvideo I got you. I can explain how to get the script working for ComputerCraft if you'd like. I'm also uploading my world with everything working to Planet Minecraft here in the next few days. Be sure to keep a lookout for that to see a full example of how to set it all up.
@@nathanmoser8914 thanks bud, allready got it working.
@@Flxvideo Nice. Have fun!
Took me ages to get it up and running at a good capacity. Lot's of daily tweaking. (As I am dumb and couldn't figure out a good auto regulation method.Computercraft, etc.)
I need help with the field strength. I turn the reactor on and the strength just keeps dropping and when it hits 15% it charges again. I don't know how to get the field to stay a 50%
set targetStrenght in line 5 up to 85%
...just a simple solution that the generator dont drops under the 15% and start charging again and again.
i dont know where i have to change something that i can target the fieldstrenght i've chosen in line 5 but it should be the formula in line 280 with a little mistake
awesome tutorial on how to use drmon! i linked this video in the readme and gave a shot out to your channel
Solved! Issue with "startup" error message: "startup:178: attempt to concatenate string and boolean" Edit startup, Line 178 reads "print (k . . ": " . . v) Should read "print (k . . ": " , v) Fixed! I don't have any experience in "code writing" but was determined to find the "fix" due to the sear desire to use this specific program for my reactor spotlighted in this video. So yeah... if anyone has this issue, hope this solves it. :)
This mod proves that circles are very powerful and also very dangerous in minecraft.
Absolutely fantastic tutorial as you usually do! Love it.
I am curious about the times of a reactor going from perfectly safe to the explosion as a form of self-destruction system. Say you have your base set up to where you absolutely do not want a faction to take hold of the station. One method of avoiding the enemy from capturing the base and such a high-end reactor would be to set an automated system to detonate the reactor. Would you happen to know the times to go from safe to detonation?
It’s a Reactor not a BOMB
@@nathanpfirman625 yeeeees, but still it can be weaponized as a bomb, a really damn good one too I might add.
Not to mention, that's what they used to blow up the Nostromo, her self destruct sequence was overloading the reactor until it went critical
@@nathanpfirman625 By the way that's the basis for the self-destruct sequence I thought of doing when I made my initial comment. I got the sound files, just gotta mod in the sounds and figure out how long it takes on average for a draconic reactor to blow
It gives you roughly 3 minutes before it explodes. It calculates the time until 2:30.
@@wherewiiwentwrong Thx, that's godo to know :)
Thx you saved my base, impressed my friends and gave me unlimited power. your awsome
my theory, it is a star in containment field, that compresses it so hard, that fusion reaction begins
although playing on a factions server this goes from energy gen too nuclear bomb! able too devastate multi BILLION dollar bases in a matter of moments.
Nice resource pack switch at 13:47
Would love to see more about new 1.10 mods whenever you get around to it (if it ever happens), like refined storage and updated Ender IO.
NOTE: IF YOUR DRACONIC REACTOR LOOKS LIKE A SUN THEN YOU HAVE AN UPDATED REACTOR
The computer program is made for the older reactor
Do you have a link to new code the reactor?
@@TheMindCrafters there are ways to update the existing code to use in 1.18 but it's very buggy, the worst part is the constant screen flicker which occurs every tick, making the interactable screen useless, not to mention the values that have essentially been amplified by 10x for both output in FE and fuel conversion. likely someone will have to sit down and rebuild a whole new program that works with the reworked reactor
Protip with reactor: never build in the overworld, build in another dimension if it somehow destabilizes either via server bug or your own mess up, it won't destroy your base or everyone else's.
But that would be no fun.
fun way to blow up your friends stuff
Lol, you have a draconian reactor and use a peridot pick axe xD
Matthew Lawer this is a creative world...
Um I think its Draconic Reactor
Philipp __3 that was on the survival server
i know im four years late, but he has a staff of power which makes a pickaxe virtually, and all other tools for that matter, redundant.
I know it's been years but if anybody wants to know how to do this without computercraft:
- Make the output flux gate 537,000 RF/t
- Make a comparator run out of the Energy injector
- Set "Redstone mode" to "Sheild-"
- Make the input flux gate 222,000 Rf/t High, 0 RF/t Low
- Connect the Comparator signal to the input flux gate with redstone and more comparators if needed. INSURE THAT NO REDSTONE SIGNAL IS LOST.
Thats it! The flow gate will automatically put around 175k rf/t in the reactor and will pull out 537k rf/t
I’ve never played this mod or whatever it is but it looks fucking bonkers.
i wanna see the video where hes like "so i blew up my server" lol
The best way to have that 2b2t feel.
Let's create one in 0,0 and blow it up
at this current time, that reactor does much more damage
i would gather all the materials, and build the reactor for that one guy on the server who keeps sneaking into my base somehow and stealing all my cookies to just give him wrong instructions on how to handle the reactor and watch Hiroshima 2.0 from my base while eating popcorn XD
From the future i can safely say its going to get more awesome
made a redstone version of the computer craft program, testing for stability now
Oooooo a stabilizer! I’ll take that (Fallout series starts)
that armour belongs on the badass king of kickassia
i love these guys' intro :)
11:46 and that's really BADASS
I like the idea of actual scientists being like: fuck we have too much power! What do we do?!
Throw it in the trash
THE POWER OF THE SUN IN THE PALM OF MY HAND!
I gues I understand why a server might ban it, while almost entirely safe, if something goes wrong it creates a massive explosion that cant be contained
Can be contained by some mods, modular forcefields, for example, *can* stop it if you're willing to sink nearly a trillion RF into the shield.
that video was very helpful, but the one thing i didnt quite understood was the conversion level
Hey, I know this may sound odd, but what happens if you are playing this on skyblock and don't have computercraft as part of the mod pack? How would you balance out the input output with just the flux gates DE provides? Because when i just use the Flux gates, the Shield energy input keeps going down.
You can use a draconic reactor as long as it has a containment field strength 1% or higher so you can run it at 1%
I note that the Tesseracts survived that.
I'm having trouble with 2 things. 1. My tesseracts are set to their respective frequencies but when I scroll over them the GUI says frequency 0, but when I open it it says set to frequency 2. And then when i activate my reactor the rf/t slowly falls until it hits 1 rf/t, do I need to adjust my flux gates for that?
i have it seu up like you and fallowed the tutorial but nothing shows up on my moniters
19:01 it says: "Increased containment field load" so the containment field should be weaker, since it now has to support a heavier load. So why is the containment arrow going up?
Do you have a video that shows the placement of each block of the reactor being built ? I am trying to follow what you have, but I am not sure how some of the blocks get placed just from looking at the set up already completed. Mainly the flux gate and the tesseracts
For the computercraft program use this updated fork instead : github.com/Sirnut/drmon
Can you please show us how to do that reactor without camera cuts?
which gui mod are you using that shows you information about what are looking at?
I see a fast way to clear the space for a guardian farm with those explosions :P.. No more tedious filling up with sand to clear the ocean :P
Need a short answer about the working of the reactor from anyone who ever used it, even in creative!
We just reached the point on our server to begin contemplating should we try to build one.
The facts we know:
-it need awakened draconium blocks as fuel, which cannot be automatically produced as far as we know
-then it produces ludicrous amounts of power
The question is: is this reactor only does this?
I mean if it makes chaos shards as a byproduct, or makes a magic field which helps, or something like that, then it _may_ have some meaning.
But for getting a lot of energy, even IC2 reactor is safer, and can be automated.
If you have time to answer this, thanks!
When I click charge reactor nothing happens and it stays in the charging state can you help me
Edit - figured it out apparently I just had to make the whole computer craft thing on the east reactor stabilizer
The explosion is more impressive on a regular world, not a super-flat
Ummmmmmmm, what if it came into the wrong hands? (Btw i’m TOOOTALLLY not talking about Disguised Toast and his plan next saturday that i have heard a little bit about)
What mod is offline TV playing on
@@roccoguzman2987 Pretty sure FTB Revelations.
Naahh he's just trying to provide infinite RF and food for the server
I enjoyed recording a video about blowing one of these up
It's true about what he said about the explosion. It's gigantic. I saw it myself.
I'm doing this set up and for some reason my Field Strength is staying around 80%
any reason why?
im more impressed with the advanced Computer :D
wow I LIKE THE CORE ITS LOOKS LIKE IN REAL LIFE I LIKE THAT SO MUCH
Yes my reactor blew up did I stop attempting to use it no I’m still blowing them up and trying
The one on my map melted down. Now half my map is missing. That was a heck of an explosion though.
I added a Scram button to the flux gate. When i press it the gate is going to stop being powered so it will immediately bump up the saturation to over 7O%
Yes, very helpfull. Im not a hater, but i do understand where the haters come from. My question is, what will you ever do with 2million rf/t... Thing is for me personally, i loathe computercraft. I hate it with a passion. I refuse to ever use it. I'd be far more interested in the redstone logic behind running it. Nevertheless, good tutorial. Keep em coming!
You can set up redstone to make a stable system aswell. But its alot more annoying to increase yeild from the reactor then.
Marijn R you can run a Giant applied energetics system (maybey)
Sure, you can put redstone signals and the power itself through tunnels that are part of a applied energistics system, but the AE system cant really be used to control it. Im guessing that redstone comparators can emit a redstone signal with various strengths based on the output of the reactor, and control it that way. I suppose with hoppers you could then control it through AE... Needlessly complicated.
Marijn R I'm with you, pal :)
Honestly the only thing I can think of is setting up like 100 laser drills and having this reactor power all of them.
So over-explained to say:
Demand stuff from it, it'll slowly catch up. Just don't overheat it or starve it from RF while it's catching up. How much it can catch up is how much saturation's available. As it catches up to higher demand, that's displayed by the "fuel conversion".
