0.15: Too much U-235 - What to do with it?

[Gandamir]

So after my centrifuges have been running for a while, I have stockpiled around 20k of U-235 with plenty of U-238 laying around as well. Any ideas or suggestions on what to do with it other than power or nukes?

Use it for enrichment, amke ammo, replace laser turrets with gun turrets, make nukes, use it for power, make nukes. Thats what you can do with it. Take your pick. Probably just recycle it to enrichment though, you can never have enough 235.

I think you can. 1x 235 makes 10 fuel cells = 80GJ. Or 240GJ if you you're using a 2x2 reactor block for 200% neighbour bonus.

Once nuclear is up and running, a centrifuge producing 1x 235 every 50 seconds (no modules) will supply more power than most people could figure out how to consume. Add another 10 seconds for the 40+1 separation for a nice round 240GJ/min = 4GW. Add speed modules if that isn't enough (although I have no idea how you could use that much power unless they've added meth labs to the game).

Maybe once you get into TW of nuclear power. Until then, yes, you can.

I have a 2x2 nuclear reactor up and running, use nukes for bugs, and still have 21k and counting of U235...

Try mass producing nukes

How many centrifuges do you run?

Around 20. Half and half on ore and reprocessing. Might have put too many down...

I have 256 THOUSAND U235. I can't make nukes fast enough due to blue processor shortages.
