Wanna share the best impact reactor blueprint from this guy.

[Commanders]

I use it its best to use.Able to standalone if you feed in all the resource needed.Took lots of space i know but its for anyone like to learn how it work or lazy to build it.Need some power to power it up all the ♥♥♥♥.Need fabric to make this too.But for 8 reactor with able to stand very long i guess its good.

Warning:This reactor doesnt support fabric boost yet just because it consume too much but still able to stand awhile.There a line been build just to feed in fabric so dont worry to build self.But if you do boost it you need add extra blast mixer and some cyro on it.Other else i guess its all good.Adding 10 vault as storage make this reactor stand for much whole day also not a problem.

I may not need it when I can build it and boot it ...

[Commanders]

Hehe not for you but for certain guy will found it useful and learn it :D

[Fumo Bnnuy n Frends]

Too big for being useful on any enclosed map.

[Commanders]

Well yeah its too large but for 8 reactor its only useful for big map.Also its good to learn how to build it and how it work.I,m now can make alot reactor working on long condition with stabalizing whole time on fabric boost.Thanks to this reactor i learn how much resource needed to boot up a reactor.

[Commanders]

And never build a reactor without back up resources and generator.Normally i go as much reserve resource as i can.Such as mixer i goes 10k saving inside and check every minute for how much inside left.Just to be safe as possible.

[Cooky-CC]

You can calculate it for custom use.
Blast Mixer output 1/1.33s ~ (3/4)/s
Impact Reactor input 1/2.33s ~ (3/7)/s

Blast Mixer / Impact Reactor ~ 7/4 ~ 1.75
so 1 Blast Mixer can hold up 1.75 Impact Reactor
there are 5 Blast Mixer in the blueprint, it can hold 8.75 Impact Reactor

[Commanders]

Yeah but you didnt calculate after fabric boost.And everything change after that.

[Fumo Bnnuy n Frends]

Wait people actually use phase fabric for a setup that already shells out enough power to last 20 meltdowns?

[Commanders]

For me yeah.I want gigawalt out of the reactor

[Fumo Bnnuy n Frends]

No i meant i didn't see any phase fabric being used for the reactors. They use only cyrofluid and blast compound

phase fabric is mostly for the turrets/construction speed up machines or to build them.

where the ♥♥♥♥ do you put it?

[crate]

phase fabric is for the overdrive projector

The Overdrive Projector, which makes buildings in it's area work faster, can itself be boosted (both in range and speed %) by consuming Phase Fabric.

[Fumo Bnnuy n Frends]

tested it.

Yeah it does inc. the speed of EVERYTHING (also output meaning more power and water from extractors made but also materials and electricity consumed).

so yeah i can see why it'd be useful to add some more cryo fluid or water extractors/sources. But it only really works if you're gonna use it for multiple impact reactors (if you use it normally it won't matter 2 water extractors and 2 cryo flulds will work for every impact reactor.

Also doesn't make sense to use it on only 1 impact reactor as the electrical costs for everything goes up near it and any nearby factories (maybe at least 2 since the overdriver and reactor takes up more materials as well).

As an idea, it's interesting. And it looks nice.

Realistically, it's practically useless. Or maybe 'use-impaired' is more the problem. It's too large to be able to easily/conveniently place it, and nothing removes the need to supply it with resources (unless you're sandboxing and don't need power anyway), which means you not only have to place this somewhere but you then have to move 8 conveyors worth of stuff to it from wherever you're mining it, meaning you're snaking conveyors all over the place as well.

Know what else you could be doing? Make your Blast somewhere easy. Make your Cryofluid somewhere easy. You might already be doing these things for other uses anyway. Then, shift TWO lines of stuff to wherever you put your impacts.

Simple.

Unless you're playing on a map where everything you need is exactly where you need it, a setup like this, while admittedly functional, is highly impractical compared to just building things sensibly.

true

my compact design is a bit more eroganamic

I gave up on making an all scrap compact reactor that's stackable but i may look into it again.
