New flower Reiujia

[LooseEthics]

If you can't solve a problem with brute force, you're not using enough of it.

An evolution of Entropinnyum.
Vast mana generation potential and base wipe protection rolled into one neat package.
100 times the mana capacity, eats nuclear explosions, very convenient, probably expensive.

How to get it:
Scan something with Radio -> research, additionally gated by whatever unlocks Entropinnyum -> infusion recipe with several Entropinnyums, Radio, and some flavor items.
One useless essentia is now marginally less so.

Things to address / ideas:

• Direct functionality upgrade or spicy explosions only?
• Astrum essentia in recipe? Thematic, but effectively gates it behind Wisp EEC. Then again that shouldn't be much of a problem when this flower becomes relevant.
• A more complex behavior to promote actually using it for generation instead of just protection. Instead of only processing explosion events when mana level is 0, accept always. But if the mana overflows the flower is destroyed and doesn't catch the final explosion. Reward this by having higher mana output rate at higher fill amount. Only really makes sense if we allow conventional explosives, unless we want to promote wrench reactor-esque meme builds.

Builds off of #127

This is cool, but unless there's some way to instantly dump the mana somewhere, the Gaia mana spreader with potency and velocity will be the bottleneck by far.

Also, does it eat just nuclear reactors exploding, or also the ic2 nuke? What about draconic reactor and gtpp mining explosive?

you could make the flower able to take a spark ( it would be a bit odd being the only flower, but idk)

This is specifically designed for nuclear reactors. I forgot about draconic reactors and didn't know mining explosives existed. Will take a look at those.
IC2 nuke creates an instance of EntityIC2Explosive, so it gets eaten by even a normal entropinnyum, per the iTNT pr. It has no special behavior since nukes are unobtainable in GTNH.

on the mana generation - it might make sense to "set" the mana production once.
i.e. once charged, the flower discharges at a constant rate determined by the amount by which it was filled.
to avoid cheesing with one large explosion followed by continous smaller ones, prevent it from accepting any more explosions until fully discharged.
