 Additionally, you can place a Mode 2 (Flip-Flop) polysilicon to eject Uranium/NuclearWaste.
+To refill a reactor automatically, here's a few steps.
-To refill a reactor automatically, you need to attach a microcontroller to the reactor, with a port touching a Dispenser and a Polysilicon (Mode2 and has to be touching the reactor). The code will use port ID 1 to read the reactor's fuel status, port ID 2 to control the dispenser and port ID 3 to eject [[NuclearWaste|nuclear waste]].
+# Firstly, get a microcontroller and put it on the Reactor.
+# Get a [[Port|port]] (Configure PortID to 1) and attach a Polysilicon (Configured to Flip-Flop) to it. This must be touching the Reactor aswell.
+# Get a [[Dispenser|dispenser]] and attach it to a port (Configure PortID to 2) above the Reactor.
+# Put the script below into the microcontroller and power it.
+# Keep it mind, that you have to turn the microcontroller on, obviously. For this you should use a [[Transformer|transformer]] with an Activate polysilicon to turn it on everytime you rejoin. Transformers have to be powered in order to work.
+The code will use port ID 1 to read the reactor's fuel status, port ID 2 to control the dispenser and port ID 3 to eject [[NuclearWaste|nuclear waste]].
