This is a very simple prototype of a Isotope Z reactor concept. SEE COMMENTS FOR INSTRUCTIONS.

    NOTE: Also, it may take more that once to start to heat up the coolant and begin power.

    EXPLANATION: How it works? In theory, when Iso.Z comes into contact with a photon it starts to undergo fission, like Uranium and Plutonium, only difference is that it releases photons and decays. The releasing of photons creates a chain reaction. This creates heat, which can pass through water to steam. In real life, most power plants have turbines to creat electricty but in this we have a detector wall to emulate that. However, Iso.Z can also fisse when under negative pressure.

    CAUTION: Like I mentioned before, never refuel the Reactor Chamber when there is pressure below around -0.5. If this happens, the fuel will start to undergo fission automatically by itself and this will spread into the fuel storage, which will create problems.

    NOTE: I would admit this is very buggy, especially the Coolant system, which needs work. The Secondary Coolant may 'clog' up, as a result of over cooling. Also, the Secondary Coolant might over heat and never actually cool down properly.

    Sorry, -0.5,

    INSTRUCTIONS: It may help having pressure view on, (press '2'). Before refueling the reactor chamber with fuel, (Iso.Z), make sure the pressure is above 0.5 inside. Spark the third input, (PSCN), to load the fuel into the chamber. When full, spark the middle input to charge photons. Once the chamber is COMPLETELY empty of photons and fuel, spark the first input to release negative pressure. Again, make sure there is no negative pressure inside. Do these steps again and again to create heat.
