Radbolts killing Sun Nymphs


Recommended Posts

I'm trying the new update, and I'm working on trying to get radbolts with the Sun Nymphs in my base.
Twice now the radbolt generator has launched bolts, and it appears as those the nymphs are in the way of the bolt and die (confirmed it died before it's life end)

Is anyone else dealing with this kind of situation?

Yes, radbolts damage critters and I believe are strong enough to one-shot nymphs.  If you want to use them as a radiation source you should probably physically separate the critters from the radbolt generators. 

You could use something like a shine bug reactor:

 

Only with radbolt generators instead of solar panels and use airflow tiles instead of glass to be more transparent to radiation

I haven't tried this, but I think it's possible to squeeze a few radbolt generators in on top of the solar panels, or near the dropper. There should be some room for that. You also wouldn't need to replace the glass because a 'properly' powered up shine bug reactor should produce more than enough radiation that even through glass it would melt dupes and produce plenty of bolts.
