Pour water into starting the
reactor first; some of it
may leak down the axle into
the repeater, but this
should stop as soon as the
reactor starts running
unless you continue to
overfill it.


This could be arranged much
more compactly in the y-
coordinate if one didn't
mind the control gear in
the reactor being submerged,
but that would also require
redesigning the gear layer
of the repeater so that
gears are only on top of 
the dark green pump areas.

Unfortunately, the two pumps
in the reactor still can't
be unified in any design
where you have an axle
going down, and it's also
quite difficult to have the
reactor under the repeater
because one can't get past
the pressure plate layer.


I didn't bother placing all
access paths necessary for
construction on this plan,
obviously.

i don't think a full reactor
is necessarily necessary
here.  only one of the
repeater pumps should be
running at any given time,
and as such a mini reactor
should do just fine.


if you'd like to connect all
the pressure plates on the
bottom level to the same work
area as the middle level,
connect them with six doors,
then put one additional door
north of the red plate, and
a ramp north of that.

this fucker has serious
issues... the bottom pump
happily grabs falling water
before the red plate is ever
touched.


walkways shown are sufficient
for construction and later
access to pressure plates
from north or south, all 
without walls outside of
the four-tile width.

turn any hallway in your
fortress into a machine of
madness effortlessly!


you'll want to be careful
to build and link the red
gear assembly before
finishing the adjacent
screw pump.  Nothing else
is terribly sensitive to
build order.

alternately, dig a ramp
next to the red gear and
the channel before the
axle is built on above.



You can probably tell I have a wide-screen monitor.
