gollark: I see.
gollark: If the reactor is ever loaded without the machinery supplying it fuel it will probably shut down at some point. Which would be bad, since we have no backup.
gollark: It's on the ravineward side of the reactor and I believe all the supply systems for it should load at the same time as it on restart.
gollark: You do it. I don't have the game started.
gollark: I don't trust unloading to not do horrible stuff to my reactor.
