For those who want to try their hand at fusion, this is what you're in for...

Would also not that we're using quantum tanks. This entire process is very expensive so i'd suggest getting a stable base and processing means first. Also one hint "ME system automation rocks for constructing this lot from raw materials"

'No' They said. 'Feed the beast isn't complex at all' they said 'You'll have a great time and you're brain won't melt!'

My brain just melts looking at that system, I wouldn't even know where to start!

Since I couldn't figure out how to put in-line comments between the pics...

First shot is the display screens, obviously.
Second, is the fuel plant. Right side is the Deuterium plant, which runs water through electrolyzers to make hydrogen cells, then runs those through centrifuges to make deuterium. You can't see it in the shot, bit on the right is two separate ME systems, one for each line.
Left side in the distance, is the Helium-3 line. Cobble to redstone to endstone to endstone dust, through centrifuges to make helium-3.

Last shot, is from inside the reactor room itself. Yes, the pink blocks are advanced machine casings, yes, that takes a lot of chrome, and yes, the damned thing glitches on every server restart to think it's an incomplete machine.

Can figure out Fusion, can't figure out screen shots. *slowclap*

I handle the high level stuff... low-level crud is what I have minions for... err, I mean, valued assistants.

Could be a chunk issue, not all parts of the fusion coil ring loading at the same time. Did you check chunk borders before placing it? The ring is 15x15 so does fit into a single chunk

Hey...... i'm not an assistant. I'm an arcitech and.... well crud.... ok well that makes you "my" assistant for construction and design then tongue

Agreed, I find FTB really really boring because everything is with machines and stuff... On Tekkit, most of my things blew up! And Ftb is like Tekkit but with more confusing things. I quit both of them smile

Isn't this supposed to be on the other threads? cus it HAS something to do with minecraft?
This whole official thread is OFF TOPICS right?
Re: Fusion in FTB...

Well pretty much anything can go in off topic. Within reason of course *looks at draze and narrows eyes*.

So it's up to the thread owner really.

Oh Draze, I think I forgot my wrench in your fusion reactor's magnetic bottle support system. Did you ever find it?

and sorry for knocking over that vat of Pepsi onto the support systems. But I did spray it down with the high pressure hose. You will need a new fire extinguisher though.

Now that explains why there was a bright flash on the horizon this morning, and then it was raining Pepsi for a minute cheesey

Assloads of Chrome to make advanced machine casings?
Then again the fusion coils are even more expensive smile
Re: Fusion in FTB...
Drezzer, Tue Jul 30 2013, 03:11PM

I lost track of how much redstone we processed to make chrome, but yeah, something like 114 advanced machine casings, and a total of 33 fusion coils (32 for the ring, and 1 for the control computer).

We wound up repurposing the deuterium line to spin redstone out for the ruby dust at one point.
