So after spending a few hours building a massive 32x32x32 reactor. We ran into an issue where no matter how much we pump in or out, the steam is always capped at 5000, which can power 2 1/2 of our turbines. Any chance their is a way to increase the buffer or have the buffer ignored if output exceeds the limits?

Maybe just a config line to set buffers for things, would be nice if you doing something like a super unrealistic reactor/turbine set to power the world.

I'm aware of this; it's been reported a few times. There's a few different ways to solve this. I'll probably double the base size, then add blocks which you can add to further increase the buffer.

The "real" solution will be to use the high-temperature-density transfer fluids, which I'll be adding later in 0.3.

You could also modify the buffer and have it attached to the number of ports connected, but thats just a suggestion on that aspect, could be fairly easy to implement and would make sense (more pipes = higher flow).

Possibly to counter people just making the walls entirely out of fluid input's and outputs set them up so they don't exchange heat to liquid at all, while reactor casing/glass has "microchannels" for thermal exchange (not like they would need to be coded, but if the coolant is pulling heat from the casing rather then the core, then input and ouput pipes would not be as effective as say jacketed pipes hidden within the walls of the containment cell, basically meaning heat exchange is most effective if you have large areas of reactor walls without components such as controls and IO systems). Maybe i'm getting ahead of myself and you on that one though.
