I've made it to the last phase, and stopped because of the realisation of how much work it is to finish that . One day. Maybe.

But

I am excited for this. Bring it.

    I've given up on nuclear twice under similar circumstances...so daunting

    True but damn is it a lot of work. Or maybe it's less about the total work required and more like....the minimum work required.

    A half-assed refinery will work fine, bottlenecks don't really matter (aside from possibly cutting power) and any waste can be AWESOME Sinked. But with nuclear, you need efficiency and a waste plan.

    This isn't a criticism, by the way. I think the complication is very fair. The only thing i can think of that might make it less painful is having alternative uses for some of the single-purpose machines in the chain....not that I have any ideas of what else to use a particle accelerator for...

    Oh for sure, that's why it's late game! It's testing all of your skills that you picked up, and trust me after 5-6 factories I only now feel like I'm confident in knowing how to set it up. I remember I always wait for the alternate though that does not have sulfuric acid as waste, use the one that give sulfur as waste. Not having that liquid byproduct 100000% makes it better to work with, and then you aren't tinkering with delicate backfilling. "Hm, so 42% needs to come from backfill, vs the rest from production, so the valve needs to be at...".

    Also it's much easier to do plutonium at the same time as uranium. I hold off on all nuclear until plutonium is fully unlocked. Now with ficsonium you could wait until that, but tbh plutonium waste I think is 1000x less than uranium, so you can wait on it.
