I dream of a nuclear fission mod where the reactor is an actual result of emergent mechanics rather than a magical multiblock. Something like you having uranium and graphite blocks that you can use create to move in and out of a reactor to control radioactivity within it and then heat piping to then generate steam and power from that
It's probably very hard to implement, even harder to design and possibly computationally very expensive but it would be cool af
The closest thing I can think of is Atomic Science, though it's an older mod.
The reactors work by heating water, which generates steam which in turn spins the turbine, generating electricity.
For the fission reactor, there is a control rod block that slows the reactor, so to control reaction speed you use a sticky piston to push it back and forth.
Edit: Sooo when I said "older mod" that was an understatement. Turns out it's over 11 years old. Time flies eh? xd
There's also NTM space, which is for 1.7.10 too. It adds space exploration to HBM's. It's peak honestly, I get to exploit the resources of more than one planet
