Easily automate your Big/Bigger/Extreme reactor with a pretty graphical UI.
To install, place and connect an Advanced Computer to a valid Reactor's Computer Port,
either with wired modems or directly on it. Then, follow these steps:
- Run the following command in the Computer:
pastebin run kSkwEchg - Choose whether to calibrate or not. The calibration is only used if using Big Reactors. It gets an estimate of the RF capacity of your reactor.
To configure the program, use monitors. Once it is configured,
the monitors are no longer necessary but can still display information.
The minimum monitor size is 2x2. Use a height of 4 to have access to all settings.
When the monitor is 4 blocks tall, there will be the option to change graphs.
If there is not enough space to display a graph you will be unable to enable it.
- If the reactor has a very large max RF/t generation capacity but a low RF/t drain, it may oscillate around the target buffer
- Workaround: increase the range of the buffer (usefulness will vary)
- Reactor statistics will be inaccurate for 1-2s of power up
- Turbine support
- Remote monitoring / control
- Fully customizable colors
