gollark: Oh, cool unrelated thing, my double-fusion system in a compact machine, recently upgraded to 3.
gollark: Think about it! If your reactor is *designed* to constantly meltdown, you won't have to worry when it happens!
gollark: <@404656680496791554> even mekanism fusion reactors?
gollark: (not as a mod feature, I mean as in constructing self-repairing constant-meltdown things with the current version)
gollark: Cool and utterly terrible idea: reactor designs which constantly melt down and have self-repair capability.
