'''Reactor Stabilizers''' increase the stabilization rating of a [[Ship]] or [[Space Station]]s active [[Reactor]], which makes the reactor more durable in combat but adds mass to the ship overall. Reactors do not explicitly require stabilizers, however reactors without stabilization are more prone to reactor damage after [[Shield System]]s are depleted. Stabilizers will essentially increase the mass of the reactor but also increase it's hit points.

Stabilizers exist solely to reduce the vulnerability of reactors by providing reactors with stability. Placing stabilizers on a ship or space station automatically connects them to the active reactor they support via stabilizer streams. Multiple ''groups'' of stabilizers can be built to improve the stability of a single reactor, so it is not necessary to place all stabilizers together. It is also not necessary for a reactor to have 100% total stability, however that would give the reactor the most durability.

Stabilizer streams appear automatically between stabilizer groups and the active reactor they support. These streams are vulnerable to hostile fire, and a hit to a reactor stream may cause some power loss. Power streams should be kept protected because of this and can be redirected using [[Reactor Stabilizer Stream Node]]s so that they stay within the interior of a ship.

Reactor Stabilizers increase the stabilization rating of a Ship or Space Station's active Reactor. Reactors above 10 blocks in size require a stabilization rating of 100% in order to produce full power.

Usage

Placing stabilizers on a ship or space station automatically connects them to the currently active reactor. Multiple groups of stabilizers can be built to improve the stability of a single reactor, so it is not necessary to place all stabilizers together, but the number of groups cannot exceed 20.

Sacrificial Stabilizers

Since stabilizers are entirely useless without the reactor they support, it may be helpful to encapsulate a ships reactor with the stabilizers themselves as a last layer of defense. While this is a viable strategy, it is not a build requirement. The benefit of this method is that the durability of the stabilizer blocks themselves now also protect the reactor.
