This is the first version made in survival mode. use bead pump to pull heat and steam out form reactor chamber to eliminate possible max gas pressure issue, lower deck is made with aluminium tile too aid the heat transfer yet steam only recycling in side this chamber.

water is gather back to storage to power up reactor and the additional temp sensor is too stabilize steam room to not go over then 210c.

bead pump is filled with nuclear waste and the mechanical door open only if its lower then 275c, hope its alright with steel pump. for now.
one drop of crude oil is used to create vacuum space down there to fuelling access
couple of fell safe is made to the lower deck with water out directly on top of acquatuner and after there is the infinite waste storage.

V2 is updated for macro temp management

I would highly recommend cooking some coal into carbon around the reactor

If you do around 4000kg iirc it gives 100% rad protection

you should connect the output of the turbines to the reactor and a drain next to it, just supply water at start-up and shut off the water once they're in good working order, you won't need those water tanks anymore.

#

overpressure will never happen when you supply the right amount of water, they will work like AT builds

Those tank is aimed to be a buffer, cuz my steam turbine isn't at 100% up time, thus there isn't enough water produced to supply reactor.

oh, don't worry about it, when the turbine is working, even if not 100%, the turbine used is always 2kg

If the reactor is only getting a small amount of water it just gets more efficient anyway
