The Engine Room
The Engine room consists of:
- Engine chamber. The interior is 5x5, framed with heat resistant glass and reinforced walls.
- A control bay, housing the three consoles needed to control the reactor and the fuel compressor.
- A dual TEG setup, already hooked up to the loops.
- Injection and Extraction ports, allowing to pump gases into and out of the loops.
- Vacuum Radiator connections, where gases in the cold loop are cooled.
Basic Set-Up
This is a baseline guide to make sure the shift doesn't go without power, and the engine doesn't explode. Any engineer that know their way around engineering mechanics will tell you that this setup is not very good. It is important that the no hazard steps are finished before any other steps are completed.
No Hazard:
Minimal Atmospheric Hazard:
Radiation Hazard:
Engine set!
Finalizing Touches
- Max Input and Output on the Main SMES in the SMES room.
Fission: 1. Put four cans of Phoron into the Cold Loop. 2. Put two cans of Phoron into the Hot loop. 3. Wrench the Fusion Core down. 4. Link it with a multitool. 5. Secure and fill the radiation collectors with full tanks of phoron gas. 6. Load three rods of plutonium into the core. 7. Load four tungsten carbide reflectors into the core. 8. Set the insertion of all reflectors to 100. 9. Set the insertion of the plutonium to 60. 10. Close the blast doors.
