A better bioreactor

A better bioreactor

All the good stuff about Cyclops BioReactor, now at your base!

Cyclops Ports of all enhancements present in BioReactor, upgraded from MoreCyclops to the original Base BioReactor.

Enhancements to Base BioReactor

View remaining item energy in real time

Each item displays its energy value and you can view them in real time via your PDA.

Very useful in helping you determine the quality of your fuel source.

If the bioreactor is still capable of producing energy, you will also see a "+" next to the current charge level when you hover your mouse over the bioreactor.

It’s very useful to know at a glance if you need to reload it.

Projects are processed in parallel

Everything in the bioreactor breaks down at the same time.

The speed at which items decompose is now based on their size. A 2x2 item will decompose 4 times faster than a 1x1 item.

All this ensures that there is no need to "wait for your turn" in the bioreactor and there are no penalties or advantages for using items of different sizes.

Variable charging speed

Since everything is processed proportionally, the bioreactor will charge faster or slower depending on how full it is.

Starting with version 1.0.0, the BetterBioReactor is adjusted to charge at vanilla speed when the Bioreactor is half full.

When less than half full, charging will slow down.

When fully charged, charging will be twice as fast as the vanilla bioreactor.

Special attention:

This mod does not change the space available in the base bioreactor.

All of this is handled by the original and highly recommended CustomizedStorage mod by the legendary randyknapp.

BetterBioReactor is 100% compatible with this CustomizedStorage and is highly recommended.

--------------------------------------

warn!

When you first install this mod, your bioreactor will be cleared of all its original contents.

Afterwards, when the mod takes over managing the bioreactor's save data, everything will return to normal.

--------------------------------------

Install

You have to install QModManager and install it.

Just unzip the BetterBioReactor archive to the QMods folder.

The final folder path should be "QMods> BetterBioReactor> mod files"

Known incompatibility

This mod is not compatible with Randy's BetterPowerInfo mod.

Due to the variable charging rate, the Better Power Info mod cannot correctly predict how much energy will be produced.
