RTG mk 2

Description
A rebalanced version of the original RTG mod, republished with permission of the original author.

Original mod info

" Hello engineers! This is the Radioisotope Thermo-electric Generator or 'RTG' for short. This is a simple, cheap, yet useful reactor-like generator which generates a fair amount of power to supply your small rovers, outposts, beacons, and whatever you can make that can survive off the power output. No fuel required, no maintenance needed, just build and your ready to go!

HOW IT WORKS:
The RTG is a real technology. Real space missions utilize this to generate power during long-duration missions.
WIKI LINK: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Radioisotope_thermoelectric_generator
It works by harnessing large amounts of heat from a decaying radioactive substance known as a GPHS.

COMES IN:
Small Grid 1x1x1 - Power Output: 152 kW
Small Grid - Power Output: 780 kW
Small Grid Cased - Power Output: 780 kW
Large Grid Tier 1 - Power Output: 900 kW
Large Grid Tier 1 Cased - Power Output: 900 kW
Large Grid Tier 2 - Power Output: 3.70 MW
Large Grid Tier 2 Cased - Power Output: 3.70 MW

How to craft a GPHS for RTGs:
Smelt enough Plutonium 238 pellets from Uranium Ore at Large Refinery,
Get other needed ingots and materials,
Go to a Large Assembler and make your General Purpose Heat Source Canisters to put into your RTG!
When you grind down any of the RTGs, it will turn the GPHS canisters into scrap metal. "

I built the Large Grid Tier 2 Encased just fine. Check with no other mods. Or maybe Keen just fixed something in the meantime. If it still crashes possibly some weird graphical issue for your system?

after the signal update building the Small Grid En-Cased and Large Grid Tier 2 En-Cased crashes now... i'm not a programer so thats the best i can give you.

you never need to use a heat source again once its built friend. Just like an RTG in the real....

So if it does not require fuel why do I need to insert general purpose heat source canisters? from Plutonium?

That sounds like fuel to me.

sorry, i dont know what you mean? are you saying your refinery is automatically making plutonium or that you want to remove that from its abilities ?
XIII Oct 21, 2023 @ 9:25am 
how do i stop refinery from crafting plutonium?
