NEREUS MK1 Fusion Drive by XBlueBeam
NEREUS MK1 is a preheat-breeder cycle semi-destroyable fusion drive. It runs on only water, and can function in reactor-only mode. Water is used as fuel as well as reaction mass - exhaust is composed of superheated steam and fusion waste products.

@GodOfChaos i dont really know, quite long. worked on it on/off for like 3 weeks now or smth? maybe like 15hrs total -
XBlueBeam 16th Sep 2025there you go, its labeled "auto ignition"

XBlueBeam 16th Sep 2025temp* not temo

XBlueBeam 16th Sep 2025@Ishaq1219_20 yea the reactor has a system where if the temo gets too low <5000C, it cycles an ignition. The logic which makes this toggle in is for certain key systems to be active. I can add a toggle for it if you want?

This is incredible. How long did it take you to make this? -
Ishaq1219_20 16th Sep 2025
with makes it annoying and plus manual dosent have any auto systems -
Ishaq1219_20 16th Sep 2025when i try starting reactor on manual mode it somehow starts by it self
-
XBlueBeam 16th Sep 2025toggle the reactor on and then off again so it cycles an ignition, that should work
-
XBlueBeam 16th Sep 2025it can kinda run as a nuclear superheated steam engine fi you only toggle eletrolysis, preheaters and nozzle on and leave the reactor off
