Was fusion physics changed?

    After the latest update I thought it would give me exactly what I needed to make a realistiic as possable fusion reactor thats self sustaining on only hydrogen. (Controling the heat and fuel injection presisly to make power for as long as theres hydrogen). But now when I put hydrogen into my chamber it doesent fuse even when its pressureised and heated.

    It just fuses painfully slowly.

    It worked normaly before the update though...

    We didn't change anything relating to fusion, you can see the changelog here

    Your save uses PTNM, which means you created it in 96.0, correct? 96.1 wouldn't have affected this save. The problem seems to be you aren't heating up the HYGN very much.

    It wasen't PTNM before. It was just TTAN. In the history of the save it used it and it did work before the update. The version after the update I added PTNM as the "core" because it could sustain higher temps without melting and diden't need to block pressure. I Think its some kinda bug with my save and the update. I think im just gonna totaly redesign it.


    Il keep the save up for now incase theres any kinda solutions or revelations on what happened.

    I think Il do a more pulse based reactor that could be easier to work with.
