Advanced microreactor obsoletion
See https://github.com/CleverRaven/Cataclysm-DDA/pull/33440; thank you for asking to check. -Actual-nh (talk) 12:19, 24 May 2021 (MDT)
would it be ok to add this to the page ? cuz when i checked change log i dont see it and thank you for the link, do you by chance know why or where it was removed for? please and thanks
- (Quite welcome; happy to help!) I've added a link. I am guessing it was removed for lack of realism, but I don't know for sure. It might still be in Cataclysm: Bright Nights, which I can't say I know much further about. -Actual-nh (talk) 14:56, 26 May 2021 (MDT)
