Right, I see what you're saying. So our options are 1)Particles and 2)New Lighting Engine Woah! I just remembered seeing a nether mod that had mushrooms that gave off colored light. I saw the mod on the minecraft forum about a year ago, I believe. I remember distinctly some mushrooms that gave off purple or green light, and lots of it. If we could find this mod, we could find out how he did it.

I'm talking blocks with different IDs that imitate water, but have a slightly different color. The reactor would look covered in ice? I don't see how.

Hmm, yeah. using particles to simulate blue glow would be a bit overwhelming. However, I think light blue "redstone" particles floating in the water would look good in the water, if only from a distance. (like the navy blue particles for the teleporter) Edit: Another idea is different colored water blocks that emit their own light, like a brown mushroom. So there would be lighter colored water blocks near the reactor, and increasingly dark blue as the light fades.

So I'm going to assume all of you have no idea what that is. I didn't either until, like, 30 minutes ago. Basically it's a blue glow that exists around liquid-encased nuclear reactors. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cherenkov_radiation Yeah. Beautiful, right? I think IC2 NEEDS this. Reactors with water around them need this. The coolness of this being implemented is incomprehensible. I've always made my reactors by having a mining turtle dig a 5x5 hole down to bedrock and putting the reactor/chambers down at the bottom, with the transformers and power storage behind a reinforced glass window in a "control room". Do you people have any idea how cool it would be to look down the hole and see the blue glow, or even better, see it from the control room? Discuss.

Ah, I should have known. Thanks for the link to the status checker.
