Maintenance
Consumed continuously to keep the facility running. Starve it and it degrades.
SuppliedContainment fields glow a steady, unsettling violet. Output is well beyond what a fuel-cell plant could manage.
StarvedThe containment fields are drawing down — dark matter cells are running low, and nobody's in a hurry to cut corners on this reactor's fuel.
Upgrade Chain
Dark Matter Reactor has no upgrade path — it is built once, at this level.
