Sooo much has been added since Christmas... crazy amounts of stuff 😎😎😎

@@ShArPy1o1Games have you considered doing a properly in depth tutorial? (Or maybe you have, and I’ve just not seen it yet!) I’d love to learn what values and numbers need to be balanced in this game, how the cooling loops interact with each other, etc. Basically an “amateur to expert” type thing where we can learn how to be as good as you at reactor operation 😄

I do have an in depth start up Tutorial but as with this game and its constant updates and changes, it makes it hard to have an updated tutorial all the time... My suggestion is to watch this whole season 3 as I don't 'edit' the video from recording or miss anything you may need to see to learn more in depth and its the latest version of the game. 🤔😇 I'm really looking forward to when Multiplayer becomes available once again. 🤯👌 (My hopes aren't high for anytime soon, unfortunately due to the game being a "buggy mess" according to the Single Developer)

My latest in depth Start-up Tutorial: czcams.com/video/cyhqpHxRw0w/video.html

I found starting a new Game and pushing random buttons also work too 🤪😇🤣

What's malfunctioning? 🤯😇🤪

Cool... learn something new everyday... cheers 😎

@@ShArPy1o1Games yes they change out 1/3 of the core on every refuel.

Makes sense... more efficient 🤯🤯🤯

Hmm interesting I will have to check this out some time soon 😎🤯🤔

Noice

And you’re my favorite CZcamsr ever including Amy doggy

@@ShArPy1o1Games you’re not verified on CZcams

Pretty sure I am 🤪😇

Yeah I will but I'm trying to keep a slightly reactive core to try and bring the xenon down a bit. It definitely got out of a hand and to hot for a bit there

If specific help is needed then it's really quite easy to upload your game save file to the Nucleares Discord Page or even to me directly via Discord with a summary of the issue and I'll check it out 😇🤪😎

@@ShArPy1o1Games I have my laptop and it won’t correct to WiFi and I’m waiting until I get back from the lake to get online and I have soo many Sus games on my account in my steam library

I’ve been playing the game a lot because of this channel (thanks for showing this game!), and I noticed the physics frame isn’t consistent in timing either. For example, it takes 1 seconds to process 1 frame, then later it takes 3 seconds to process 1 frame. So, the physics calculations for the player’s height difference between physics frame would be inconsistent like your mentioning. Walking straight on the stairs is your best bet, but it can still happen depending on the physics frame time to process. Edit: Grammar...

Thanks heaps for the suggestion... I think its just best for me to not use stairs and not to die and restart haha... cheers all the same 🤪👌😇

Yeah, that could have been a mess if I had forgotten to turn it back on, haha

5 Episodes a week with more to come 😎🤪

It's going to be a busy week and an interesting one next week, too... Should I shut down next week whether I need to or not?

Thanks heaps for supporting the channel 1st off lol... 😎 I think a shutdown is really the only path to choose from here or it will get boring kinda fast where if we shutdown (regardless of if we need to or not) next week and trigger the audit etc. 😎👌

​@@ShArPy1o1Games Maybe you can do about 10 in game days off screen so the shutdown is actually required.

I think there are some things you could do to keep things interesting: for one, you're operating fairly inefficiently: a lot of energy is being dumped into the resistance banks or straight to the condenser through the bypass. You don't get penalized for going over demand unless you go more than 10% over, and even then it's not immediate unless there's a significant overage, so learning to operate the plant with the resistance banks turned off except for absolute emergencies is a worthwhile challenge. Likewise, learning to control turbine output with minimal bypass usage. The process of switching back and forth from one-loop to two-loop operation, or of switching between loops, is probably also worth learning, as it expands the range of maintenance you can perform without a complete shutdown. This was extremely challenging before the admit valves were around, but is manageable now. I'm not sure, but I believe you can save money by doing maintenance personally instead of with AO. Just a few ideas.

Interesting thoughts and I'll be sure to impose most of them in my next season. I did many things the way you saw specifically to teach before getting into more complicated gameplay later as every other season has stopped me from playing or continuing due to a save game incompatibility, so this is the furthest I've been able to go on YT. Keen to do more in the future with anything that will make it more difficult

I'd love to but I honestly don't have the time to play the game for for 5 hours to waste time/repairs, I'd rather say this is when u need to shutdown etc but continue with a shutdown in the new week 🤪🤔😎

Yeah of coarse... I just don't want to show it too much as it is still in development but had to share 👌😇✌️

@@ShArPy1o1Games My guess is a type of "breeder" reactor or some sort of "RTG" that makes use of your old "spent" fuel.

I'm keen to find out asap hahaha

As far as I'm aware (and please correct me, anyone, if im wrong)... But the Admit Valves are just the valves that allow steam access or a clear path to the electric turbines where the Bypass Valves make the Steam go around the turbine and straight to the condenser. Hope this helps and correct haha 😇✌️

@@ShArPy1o1Games sharpy if this is the case it just reduces the ammount of steam that is allowed to the turbines so the rest of the steam is keeped inside the primary loop increasing the pressure.

Yeah that's when the fuel will be depleted and needing to be swapped with the spare you start your game with (should be after about 10-14 in game days...) I've also done what you say due to the fact that I have 2 loops running now BUT..... I have noticed that we started at 65% (Primary coolant circuit) on Loop 03 then balanced both loops to 20% at the end yet I'm using more fuel... I'm thinking there may be a bug somewhere with that as I noticed the reactivity goes up when dropping 1 loop while evening it out with the other 🤔🤯👌

@@ShArPy1o1Games Euh not sure if that's a bug in the game. It's what a real reactor would do. You see, the decay process of uranium will always try to heat until it can heat no more. The more heat you take away from this process the faster the uranium decays.

Yes I know how a PWR works and the decay of fuel lol... I don't think you understand where I said the potential bug may be 👌✌️ But that's ok

@@ShArPy1o1Games Well you said running 2 loops at 20% gives you less efficiency then running 1 loop at 60%. I said that's expected, you're taking away more heat with 2 loops at 20 then with 1 loop at 60. Thus less efficient.

How is 65% with 1 loop taking less heat away with 2 loops at 20% each? Doesn't make sense to me?

I've never had that as I've always been in nominal mode with 360c... interesting how it's changed though

Yeah same here

Ep10 is when we will be bringing loop 02 online with a sneak preview of the new experimental "Testing Area"... The +25% demand has been an interesting experience so far and different from previous playthroughs 🤔🤓👌

Nothing technical about it as at the end of the day, it's a game and however you play it, as long as your having fun, then all good 🤔👌

Yeah I noticed that as its still above 50% after all this... Glad it actually does get damaged with wear now as it didn't in earlier versions 🤯✌️

Just about... Sydney 😎🤪

@@ShArPy1o1Games nice, did you win your house or did you pay straight cash money?

Ummmm... Neither, I rent and do this as a Hobby (CZcams), I'm a Chef by Trade 🤯

@@ShArPy1o1Games brutal job but you do you bo, what food do you cook

I specialise in Steaks and Pastas atm but I originally started as a Pastry Chef (Dessert Chef)

100% agree... it should be in the base game already but at the same time SE steals ideas from others (like from mods) to put into the game so it's nothing new here 🤯😇

I will have to double check that 🤯✌️🤔

The gauge on the right is for the fuel core itself... the 1 on the left is for the control rods ✌️

@@ShArPy1o1Games i think the right is for the ControlRods and the left for the MainCore xD hehe

Maybe but I've always gone with that as it shows when using over long periods of time

Cheers heaps for clearing that up..... I will have to try to get a better efficiency in future... 🤔

@@ShArPy1o1Games try to run your Facility with only 220°C Main Core Themperature. I testet IT out and it makes no difference to run with 500°C or only 300°C. The Energy production stay the same

Interesting to know as I've recently had to bring the core temp back to 360 celcuis as it now states that's the operating range when right clicking on the temp gauge itself 🤪🤯 I think it was a typo and should have always been at 360

@@ShArPy1o1Games yeah, i'm with you. In some Update he wrote 306 as 360°C Operation Themperature. I also run with 360°C from earlyer Versions. In my last Nucleares Livestream i tryed to trigger an Core meltdown and run over 600°C and i didn't get any more Energy from this high Themperature. 3 Cycles at 10% Primary Speed

Yeah the higher temp doesn't do much overall... maybe a bit more wear on stuff around the plant like the generators etc. pretty easy overall and i know that the Meltdown doesn't work atm (try destroying the control rods with the crane)

That's great to hear and really fun that I have someone following along with me in the game and learning as you go 😎👌

Brilliant idea... it's just weird how the gravity is working with me in terms of Defences as that was not expected at all haha. Something simple or some ultimate Drone?

@@ShArPy1o1Games I'd say an ultimate drone, have it launch fighters from an auxiliary hanger bay.

Like a Drone swarm... multiple out of the Hangar or maybe even a large ship with just cargo for Drones?

@@ShArPy1o1Games yeah, like a large carrier ship. got the idea from Star wars and a few Terran Empire Deviant art pics from Deviant art.

I knew what it meant when I started but had forgotten with everything until a later point lol... I just wasn't expecting a 50% drop etc but has been fun all the same Cheers for the watch and comment... P.S. Ep07 releases in less than 2 mins 🤔😇✌️

@@ShArPy1o1Games awesome, btw did you take a look at the stuff in the testing area?

Yeah, even the more recent update yesterday with the caps, etc... It looks soo cool, and I can't wait to test it when it's operational... There's no point showing it on YT too much yet, till then

Yeah we are in it now... Extreme difficulty with the extra 25% penalties in demand etc 🤯✌️😎

@@ShArPy1o1Games could use more extreming

Yeah but needs to be balanced first to make sure a full playthrough is possible... then the extremest of difficulties can come... can't wait for that tbh haha

Yeah need a new Transformer 1st, shouldn't take too long 😇😎

Cheers heaps... took a while to design a working Drone to do exactly this in the video

I'm just glad there wasn't another floor I had to go down or it would be as you said hahaha... I thought it was Murphy's Law getting me the last time I tried them so I tried not to say anything but I still lost health all the same haha... might be a weird bug? 🤣🤯🤔

The best and most stable way to operate is from the fastest of Reactor start ups possible pretty much... just the coding works better. Also due to IRL Xenon breaks down mostly from that actual reactivity and heat of the Reactor... the Iodine isn't all that bad as it's slightly reactive itself I've heard after day 8 then chemicals become quite troublesome so I'm looking forward to next week with repairs and such

Might be time to shut down and wait the 60hrs for the xenon to half-life out of the core... or better yet, dump the inner core vessel water then refill back up to 116,500L as it starts with that in a new save (please double check my numbers as im not 100%) ✌️😎

Also the fuel core should last about 14 days before needed to be changed out

Many parts of the game gets updated frequently even though it's all done by a Solo Dev... but overall there is so much thought put into this game with much more to come 🤯😇 Glad you found my channel and are enjoying the season ✌️😎

The seasons are all mixed in the 1 playlist as it was a decent while ago on a different game version... I also didn't go as far as I will this season

Episode 5 when it was all installed but it was hinted an episode earlier when I saw how $ much that Order was

​@@ShArPy1o1Games You mean episode 6. This was episode 5 and the loop didn't get installed yet. So on Sunday we can see episode 6?

I release Monday to Friday, 12:00am each start to the day.... And yes I thought it finished installing at the end of ep05 but I was wrong 🤣😎🤯

@@ShArPy1o1Games In which country do you live? Because to me episode 1 of this season was uploaded on Sunday 5 pm and episode 5 on Thursday 5 pm.

Australia... Thought the G'day was a dead giveaway, lol... 😇🤣✌️

Haha yes... especially learning only once when touching a live fuse and having to restart is a fun time... haha good times That's how I learnt also, pushing buttons and seeing what it does 🤯🤣👌 Glad you got the game and are trying it yourself as I'm sure you will have fun... Might be an idea to look around outside for the unseen "Testing Area" ✌️ (Discord may help further if u find it)

G'day... Cheers for the comment as always, I can't wait for next week where I may show off a new "Testing Area" within Nuckeares, showing inside looks to a new 'reactor'

​@@ShArPy1o1Games New reactor?? sounds interesting

Hello lead engineer!

G'day Golden ✌️😎

and interesting last time i saw this game was when the chemical stuff was almost removed, requiring a file modification to even enable

Thanks heaps for all the tips... I think I'm so touchy on the controls cause there wasn't much else to do haha... Also the condenser can definitely gain more temp for more efficiency 😎👌

Not all game updates break previous save games, but it definitely does most of the time...

@@ShArPy1o1Games Yah, i thought it too and ruined my Savegame with trying. But i tryed it again and it works ;-) Ah and i promised that you continue playing Nucleares. Got a few tipps from your Gameplay. But can you tell me why you operate with so less Water from the secondary Loop in your Steam Generator? The Middle of the green Zone is around 3.000ltrs.?

Honestly I don't know why I like to keep my Steam Generators in the yellow or around the 1800L mark is I think just from habit as even if there was an update that increased the repair etc. then it's quite easy to shut down and repair as money isn't hard to come by. I think its just my preference 🤯🤣✌️

Also when it's kept around 1800L, it means there can be more room for steam and less taken up by the water/coolant itself... Just remembered why I originally did this to begin with haha ✌️ (Hope this makes sense 🤣)

@@ShArPy1o1Games the Steam hast to go to the Turbine. Not leave it in the Steam Generator xD I dont think that the wear of the Steam Generator increases when its in the Green insted the yellow. Ah whatever, seems like it works fine xD

It get worse before it gets better as I honestly should have bought a new transformer first before a new loop

​@@ShArPy1o1Games Actually the first thing i would buy is the full set of resisters. That way i can run the loops at 49% all the time instead of constantly having to adjust to the demand. This way the entire system would practically run itself and you only need to adjust to the fission products.

I would normally agree 100% but since I have the Extreme Difficulty with the extra 25% Demand difference, it's shown that I needed to buy a new Transformer instead 👌 Thanks heaps for the comment and suggestion 😎

Maybe they changed it in an update ?

Have confirmed through discord that only 2 pumps are needed to be bought per Loop

Yeah I agree but it's I threshing how the game interprets and shows everything throughout the operation of the Reactor

It's repair value in ep06 would argue haha... plus a new update will mean more wear on the generators and turbines apparently

@@ShArPy1o1Games The wear is Speedup but in terms of integrity it's fine that's what I meant

Cool beans, cheers 😎🤯

Yes you need to create the water and spawn it in at the correct radius... Spawn your character into your new world with water mod installed and type below into the games chat (Enter)... (bin a while since i used, might be good to double check on the water mods steam workshop.) /wcreate /wradius [1.027]

@@ShArPy1o1Games Thanks!

I swear it wasn't always only 2 pumps needed to be bought...? 🤔✌️ Solo dev much have changed it somewhat recently

Apparently, I think I only need 2 pumps now? 🤔

It's always been 2 the third pump is the condenser one but you start with that

I must be spacing out then haha... cheers again as always 😎👌

@@ShArPy1o1Games It happens to the best of us
