Fusion Reactor
Last night I've started building the parts we need for a fusion reactor. Right now the fusion reactor block is done. That leaves the reactor coils and the factory needed to supply the reactor with fuel... basically the most expensive parts of the system
I've added 4 more quarries this morning to help get us the much needed rubies. This morning there were 2600 in storage and we need around 3600 if I recall correctly.
On the previous map I used deuterium and tritium as fuel but those are a bit of a pain to make. There were some other ideas as well but I forgot what those were so if anyone would be so kind as to refresh my memory?
We'll also be needing another factory building to house everything. It has to be pretty big, at least the same floor surface area as all the floor of the house have combined. Any volunteers? I still like the house we have right now so I wouldn't mind if we continue in that style
And we also need to figure out how we're going to use all the power from the fusion reactor. Do we want to make a high capacity EU storage system as well?

Maybe use the hole-of-a-mountain biome to build a place to put the reactor, and from there use inter-dimensional energy storage units to transport it. Very expensive, but might save us from any additional lag at spawn and gives the crater a use...
Yeah, I know. Probably not going to happen. :P
As for using the power, I can't think of anything other than hooking it up to a bunch of Matter Fabricators.

Where is this hole-of-a-mountain biome you speak of? Got a dynmap link maybe?
As for very expensive inter dimensional energy storage: I really like those but they are limited to only 2048EU/t. So we'd need 32 of those just to get all the power from the fusion reactor into the house
Sverf and I are currently using quite a bit of power on our suits which carry about 13.000.000 EU and drain really fast. And others have voiced their interest in this kind of armor as well so I think we'll be making more in the near future

Get the fusion reactor ready because I will drain lots of power with my arsenal .

The quarry hole you've made at the Red Mountain Biome.
And I have no idea what armour you're talking about. Care to fill me in? :P

Oooooh that hole
Fusion reactors don't really blow up like nuclear reactors, so we don't have to put them far far away or in a deep hole really. But spawn is getting pretty heavy on the client side. Dom even went in denial saying that his PC was fast enough, even though his framerates were poor
The armor I was talking about is the GraviChestPlate. It pretty much makes you indestructible. You can go swim in lava, stand in a creeper hole, get attacked by zombies for 15 minutes before noticing they somehow spawned inside the house... And it gives you creative mode flight. The only down side is that is needs a lot of EU to power the suit. 15 minutes of flying costs 10.000.000 EU :B
