Taking my testing design from another one of my saves, (ID:2982742) it has 5x compressed plut fuel, and LITH coolant. It has velocity based power generation using VSNS.

    it just melts down

    The right section has a bit of LITH where there should be CRMC

    @Thatreactordude Oh! I actually ended up doing the fast pipe myself! If I could get help with like control systems though, or making it pretty, (the things im bad at) that would be appreciated

    @tptQuantification i already have a save of this version with fast pipe, if you want i can upload it and credit you but after i get everything sorted

    very cool concept! lithium cooling is certainly an interesting way to do it. very nice, +1

    @tonimark that seems to just be a limitation of plut reactors. The pressure created from the reaction keeps it hot for a while.

    interesting choice for coolant +1

    also it barely works the fuel just runs out and reactor shuts down

    nah just a case for lithium cooling , there are much lower applications better switch to salt cooling instead?
