My general protocol:
1) Set up cold loop with a gas, usually plasma (I tried plasma/oxy and it literally exploded - never again. The shuttle was on the way thankfully). Turn on cold loop and get it chilling.
2) Set up hot loop with a gas, usually again with plasma, and get it circulating.
3) Activate burn chamber with 35/65 plas/oxy, and/or furnaces.
And then the following sequence of events always happen: It gets up to over a megawatt (hit 2MW last time I tried with a "safe" mix and I even got a purple-engine hellburn on Cogmap 1), then slowly stops increasing, and slowly starts decreasing.
I can never figure out why, but it happens EVERY SINGLE TIME and I always lose power after a few minutes. What am I doing wrong?
