Dwarven Water Reactor[edit]

My fort is only 7 years old, on a tropical 2x2. With temperature and weather off, and six water reactors running, I was getting ~35fps. Once I got the magma I wanted up to the surface I turned them off got back up to 60fps. After deconstructing them and letting the extra water evaporate I was back up to 90fps. Beware the DWR.--Passive Fist 11:21, 2 July 2010 (UTC)
