In a world where every *single* ftb item tutorial I’ve watched is by a different channel, THIS tutorial is beyond A+. No time wasting, no inconvenient accent, no awkwardness. Thanks!
Just wanted to say that this is genuinely one of the best tutorials ive seen for IC2. Simple, to the point, but most of all beginner friendly! Thank you dude :D
Great tutorial. I found a java calculator where u can simulate the reactor to your liking. Also i think its just better to use geothermal generators as it generates 20EU/t, im currently using around 100 on my world. Much cheaper and infinite energy.
Can you do a video about liquid cooled reactor? Because I can’t really seem to interact with the reactor access hatch, maybe a glitch. I wonder if it also happens to you?
I've never had any problems with it myself, but I don't think I have played with the liquid reactors in Minecraft 1.12.2. It is something I could definitely do in the future.
Try surrounding one quad cell with 4 Overclocked Heat Vents. Adjacent to the Overclocked Heat Vents add Component Heat Vents. A single quad cell should produce 96 heat per reactor tick and the 4 adjacent Overclocked Heat Vents should be able to dissipate 20 apiece, which would still leave 16 heat to be dissipated. The Component Heat Vents adjacent to the Overclocked Heat Vents should be enough to dissipate the remaining heat.
Put Uranium Ore in a Macerator. That will give you Crushed Uranium. Put the Crushed Uranium into an Ore Washer OR into a Thermal Centrifuge. If you put the Crushed Uranium into a Thermal Centrifuge, you then get Purified Crushed Uranium Ore. Put the Crushed Uranium ore OR Purified Crushed Uranium Ore into a Thermal Centrifuge. That will give you 1 Tiny Pile of Uranium-235 (2 if you used the Ore Washer) and 4 Uranium-238 (5 if you used the Ore Washer). These two isotopes of Uranium are used to make the Enriched Uranium Nuclear Fuel, as 3 Tiny Piles of Uranium-235 are used and 6 Uranium-238 are used to make each fuel. To make it into a fuel rod, put the Enriched Uranium Nuclear Fuel into a Canning Machine (Either Canning Machine as the mod IndustrialCraft2 has two of them) with an Empty Fuel Rod. Voila, you know have a Fuel Rod (Uranium) I highly suggest that you use JEI with this mod. It should be able to tell you all of these recipes in game.
Man, why does this mod make it so incredibly annoying to get tiny piles of uranium? You need it for the fuel rods yet they make you make the thermal centrifuge for absolutely no reason.
I would guess that it is just a sprinkle of realism. In real life you have to send uranium through thermal centrifuges to separate the U-235 from the U-238.
@@minecraftphenom0892 Wow I'm surprised you're still replying. They did the same thing with oil and it just makes using industrial craft way more painful than just using thermal expansion. The only reason to use it is for the armor and cool nano sword.
Got a question i know you mignt not know it anymore but is the Reactor at16:40 completly stable? can i let it on until the reactor fuel rods are empty?
@@minecraftphenom0892 Okay thanks just wanted to be sure dont want my base to suddenly explode because i thought the reactor was save. And wow good response time even though the video ist (very) old
They lose durability over time, but they can be repaired while they are in the reactor with Reactor Coolant Injectors. WARNING!!! Be very careful with these, as they need Lapis Blocks (for the LZH) and Redstone Blocks (For the RSH) Coolant Injectors. If they run out of the Redstone/Lapis Blocks, the Coolant Injectors will be unable to repair the Condensators inside your reactor, which could end catastrophically. I strongly recommend that you play around in Creative Mode to gain a functional understanding of how they work.
I also have a video (th-cam.com/video/qlsZhzcDf2U/w-d-xo.html) where I actually build a bunch of reactors with the LZH and RSH Condensators. Start at the 15:50 mark for that. Also, I build a safety mechanism near the end of the video for the reactors (to automatically shut off the reactors if I run out of Redstone or Lapis Blocks).
@@minecraftphenom0892 thanks for the quick answer! If i have a reactor coolant injector "fueled" with lapis blocks, there shouldnt be a problem tho and the reactor is safe like that right?
@@zzz-uw7ou Make sure that the Injector is powered and that it has the right voltage as well. I would definitely test your set-up in a creative world first though. Nobody likes to have their base blown up by their shiny new reactor lol. Good luck!
How do you actually craft the fuel rods though? I’m trying to figure out but JEI or IC2 wiki doesn’t show how to make them, it keeps giving false information.
@@notleks2411 Uranium ore is processed in the Macerator. That should give you Crushed Uranium Ore. Put the Crushed Uranium Ore into a Thermal Centrifuge. This will give you some (I think 4) Uranium-238 and 1 Tiny Pile of Uranium-235. In a vanilla crafting table, you can make the Enriched Uranium Nuclear Fuel with 6 Uranium-238 and 3 Tiny Piles of Uranium-235 (The Tiny Piles of Uranium-235 go in the middle row of the crafting grid and the top and bottom rows consist of Uranium-238). Then you take the Enriched Uranium Nuclear Fuel to a Canning Machine with an Empty Fuel Rod.
MFSU is typically a good option, but an MFE might also work as well. Keep in mind the voltage limitations of the batteries that you use. Trying to pump in too much voltage into a battery (or machine for that matter) will cause it to explode.
@@minecraftphenom0892 i tried multiple times to connect to a mfsu ( using transformers like ev and hv but it still explodes ( im using the most overpowered reactor that u shown)
@@ImLucasC I believe there is a mod that adds a higher tier transformer, which would be able to handle the voltage. Also, you could place a Matter Fabricator (with enough Transformer upgrades) beside the reactor, thus eliminating the need for cables and transformers. But you are mostly correct.
There's one problem. Where you can use all this power you getting from the nuclear reactors, it would be nice if you could power lamps or electricity 8m your base in survival mode
I always play modpacks, so I am not 100% sure, but I believe it is the mod The One Probe. There are some other mods that show tooltips such as WAILA (What Am I Looking At). Hopefully this helps.

Bro the dudes don't have any fault
I've been playing with IC2 for years, but this has always daunted me. Thanks for the lesson.
Same here :D
note to self: watch the entire video , before turning it on , to avoid blowing up my entire base , again
How is the base now?
@@MABGaming01 well assuming by how its been 10 months now id say its either been abandoned or well developed

From five years later, thank you for the solid 20 minutes of information with no bullshit.
I remember playing this on 1.8 back in 2014.
Those where times! Glad to see the mod is still alive :D
Today he was updated xd
I'm at endgame in sky odyssey and I try this out, i mess up and it blows 99% of my island, and that 1% left is my soul
MATHASIANBOY123 you overheated it I think
This was an informative and no-nonsense guide, thanks mate!

Came back to FTB after a long break and this video helped a ton
blew up my base in 30 secs thanks mate thumps up
That was a very nice tutorial of a nuclear reactor of industrial craft 2! Thank you :D
Very good tutorial!
Thank you! In no way is this tutorial comprehensive, but it is a good start. I'm glad you enjoyed it!
damn i like how balanced this mod is )))
IndustrialCraft is an awesome mod. I've enjoyed playing through its various iterations over the past few years.
LMAOOOO @ 18:07 when he opens the reactor "this is basicly more of a bomb." xDDD im dead
Yes, yes it is 😃
Right? 😂 he didnt sound like he was trying to be funny but that killed me

Thanks for this video. I have been looking for such video for years. I think you deserve more subsribers.
Great video! Very clear and informative explanation, thanks!
This is the perfect video on a mod ever!!!
Really nice guide, thanks.
Old vid but it would be better to say, "Will not pull heat from the Casings" instead of hull. Great tutorial btw.... very helpful.
Thanks for the demonstration on what happens if you F*** up when trying to build these things
Thank you! You tutorials are amazing.
I love IC2 Hi tech mods
Thanks for your video! It’s quite helpful and specific.
I would rather have this reactor blow up then my draconic reactor I had to completely restart last time my draconic reactor exploded
I would still be careful with these as well. They can still cause quite a mess if they undergo rapid unplanned disassembly.
Me after watching this: yeah I'll stick to my big reactors.
Thanks, for the tutorial!
I an about to commit several oopsies in my server.
Thank you so much for the help! You were great!
nice tutorial , helped me a lot
Thank you! I'm glad I could help.
wow good video it helped me a lot
Very good video
very informative video, subbed!
nice toturial

Very helpful thank you
Fantastic tutorial!! Informative and succinct!!
Thank you very much!
Can u show how to make the 14,285 EU reactor
So you telling me, that even One HV solar does give me more Power then a uranium Reactor? And the Reactor is more difficult to handle and to Set up?
Yes. Good luck crafting it though lol.
The first reactor setup that you show only produces 120 eu/t do you know why this is?
what do i need to have that overlay with the heat etc? i use ic2 in 1.12 tekkit 2
this shit blow my world up
Good work!
Thanks
It doesnt show the output and all that on mine

For some reason on the app whenever I put a quad cell no matter what design I have it says 100% reactor heat.
Try surrounding one quad cell with 4 Overclocked Heat Vents. Adjacent to the Overclocked Heat Vents add Component Heat Vents. A single quad cell should produce 96 heat per reactor tick and the 4 adjacent Overclocked Heat Vents should be able to dissipate 20 apiece, which would still leave 16 heat to be dissipated.

thank now i can buil it
I cant Build that, im missing the Fluid pulling Upgrade D:
That Explosion MonkaW
How can i craft silver and silicone?
Please help!!
What mod are you using to see how many EU/t generator is producing?
Woah, is pretty expensive to build a nuclear reactor D:
I have a question: why reactor vents are worse then normal vents?
16:33 those are component heat exchanger and not heat exchanger
i still don't know how to make the rods it says i need a special uranium but to get that uranium i need that uranium u get it?

Is the quad mox reactor design you showed at the end stable? As in can you leave it alone for a while and it won't blow up?
Did you mean 16:27? That design is 100% stable. It is the design that I have used the most in the past.
Can you make a video on 1.13

Link to the V2 planner? For older IC2?
Just get ic2 planner
The wiki is stupid I read the entire page on the reactor and I didn’t know that I had to use a lever to activate it
You can use any redstone signal to activate it. You can actually get pretty creative with automatic methods to turn the reactors on and off.
It said it but the instruction made me on and off the lever many times
