Once you upgrade your reactor core (and reactor shield), the temp goes too high, and I haven't found a way to set the rods higher without overheating. Therefore, those last core upgrades feel kinda useless.

That said, I loved the aesthetics and gameplay of it! It really feels nice to manage the reactor.

Ah, and about the contracts: Are they already fully implemented? The graph say maybe "200KW to 300KW" while my turbines generate circa 12MW each, so it seems kinda wrong... I mean, even a single turbine would generate a lot more than it's needed.

I'll keep an eye out for updates ;)

For upgrades, as you upgrade your reactor core, you need to upgrade cooling towers to help cool them down more, (you can also double up on cooling towers if you want, but having 3 or more is less than super beneficial).

Also note, Power isn’t generated from having a high core temp, it’s generated from having a high differential between reactor temp and your cooling tower.

As for contracts, they are a tad finicky, the offers should scale as your power plant grows, so you need to re-click on the contract to find new deals that work better with a larger plant. (I’ll adjust the UI in the next update to make this more clear.)

From what I tested, having a max cooling tower and core is no better than two or more towers since the diff is almost negligible at best when compared to expanding operations.

it's also a bit clunky that you can't at least delete let alone move anything. which hinders things with the way expansion of tiles works currently.

I also think it would be nice if we could have it so I don't have to take half an hour just to tune all my reactors since the core temp celling is comparatively shallow along with the negligible effects at best with cooling towers.

At the very least please have it so I can use the scroll wheel or some other method so we can fine tune reactor output if you insist on having core temp mitigation this atrocious when all the upgrades are maxed.
