A nuclear reaction byproduct that heats up quickly under pressure. Uranium is used in nuclear reactors in real life to create heat that makes steam, the steam is used to spin a turbine and condense back into water, the turbine speed is in a generator for power. Due to the reaction creating steam pressure increases heating it up. The rate of change in heat from pressure is determined exponentially. Uranium will slowly cool down under low, or no pressure. At 256 pressure temp will increase by 83.01C every frame.

A nuclear reaction byproduct that heats up quickly under pressure.

Creation

Excluding obvious ways, such as by brush or CLNE, URAN can be created in a variety of ways:

  • By PLUT.png fission;
  • By PROT.png collisions at high velocity;
  • By molten ROCK.png, with 1/312500 frequency, while under 100+ pressure and at least 4726.85C.

Heating

The temperature of URAN for the next frame is calculated by the formula T+p(T/2000), where p is the pressure and T is the current temperature. However, when the pressure is negative, URAN does not cool down.

Because of its heating properties, URAN is used a lot in nuclear reactors all across the game. The combination of URAN and BOYL is used widely because hot BOYL makes a lot of pressure and pressurised URAN makes a lot of heat, which results in a positive feedback loop.
