Tri-Alpha Reactor has a misleading power rating

Ok, so the Mk1- Mk3 Power output listing in the should list the maximum achievable power for that tech level
This screenshot is from a sandbox game, so everything is unlocked.
I'm not sure how you'd fix that though. The sourcecode looks up the maximum power rating (2.25) and applies the power multiplier of the fuel mode. Since the best fuel mode (proto-lithium7) has a multiplier of 0.83 you'll never get more than 1.87GW out of the reactor.
So you'd either have to introduce a fuel mode for that reactor with a multiplier of 1, or change where the info boxes take their numbers from.
By the way, i just noticed that the part info box displays the wrong power rating altogether.
Still a sandbox game, so fully upgraded, but it shows the mk1 rating:
This also seems to affect all reactors.
