Vars

_max_healthMax health to set melth_health to on init
cap_iconINTERNAL: Actual component grid icon, coloured and textured by material
gas_volumeHow much gas this component can hold, and will be processed per tick
icon_state_capIcon state that appears on the component grid overlay on the reactor
icon_state_insertedIcon that appears in the UI
is_control_rodControl rods don't moderate neutrons, they absorb them.
melt_healthEssentially indicates how long this component can be at a dangerous temperature before it melts
meltedIf this component is melted, you can't take it out of the reactor and it might do some weird stuff
melting_pointThe dangerous temperature above which this component starts to melt. 1700K is the melting point of steel
neutron_cross_sectionHow adept is this component at interacting with neutrons - fuel rods are set up to capture them, heat exchangers are set up not to
temperatureTemperature of this component, starts at room temp Kelvin by default
thermal_cross_sectionHow much does this component share heat with surrounding components? Basically surface area in contact (m2)
thermal_massThermal mass. Basically how much energy it takes to heat this up 1Kelvin
