Extreme Reactors

by ZeroNoRyouki

Extreme Reactors adds large multiblock reactors and Forge Energy Power taps for generating power in a single assembled build, and it is a rewrite of the older Big Reactors design.

ForgeNeoForgeClient and serverMIT LicenseOpen source1.9.4 – 1.21.1

What it does

Players assemble multiblock reactor structures and connect Forge Energy Power taps, so the generated energy can feed machines that accept that energy system. The mod is a rewrite of Big Reactors for newer game versions, and its file list covers 1.9.4 – 1.21.1 across Forge and NeoForge.

Turbine coils were added in a later update: Ludicrite, Ridiculite and Inanite, with a /er coils command that lets pack authors tune any new coil. Fluid fuels and wastes, added in another update, are supported as reactants. The mod requires ZeroCore, which must be installed alongside it, and the in-game manual needs an additional guide mod.

The mod is open source under the MIT License and runs on the client and the server, so both sides need it. Its latest files are 1.20.1-2.0.84 for Forge and 1.21.1-2.4.9 for NeoForge. Fabric support is not yet available.

Key features

  1. Multiblock reactors

    Reactor and turbine structures are built as multiblock machines that produce power in one assembled unit.

  2. Forge Energy Power taps

    Power taps connect the generated energy to machines that use the Forge Energy Power system.

  3. Turbine coils

    Ludicrite, Ridiculite and Inanite coils raise the output of a Reinforced Turbine, with the output figures given by the author.

  4. Fluid fuels and wastes

    Reactants can be supplied in fluid form, and wastes can be handled as fluids as well.
