The first one is the basic generator, but retextured to have an apparency of a nuclear reactor.

The second one have cooling towers with distance between the generator, but because of generator ocuppies 2x2 tiles, and the PIE file a bit more than this, any unit can cross over into the cooling towers

The third and last one, i tried to make the cooling towers together with the generator, but there's still the cross over problem.

Both of them remember a Nuclear Reactor, but a annoying thing is they need oil derricks to work, like a power generator.

just wondering if a script would solve that particular set of problems with your setup.

Love the cooling towers esp.

I was looking for my copy of Speedy's "A.I Boost" but I couldn't find it. It's been awhile but I believe Speedy's implementation follows your
line of thought Lav... Btw Lav do you still have your copy archived ? Could run it through Bones0's WdgExplorer to see exactly how Speedy did it.

Just a thought.

Speedy indeed scripted the Reactor and Cooling towers apart from the stand Power Gen and Oil Derricks mechanic... far as I can tell going through
all his AI Boost files...

btw - the name "AI Boost" just does not even begin to describe the depth, breath & intricacy of this mod. it is a masterwork and worth studying-analyzing.
