Asked By CuriousCoder92 On

I'm trying to download the Fission Optimizer by cyb0124 for the Minecraft mod NuclearCraft. The web version is fantastic for my gameplay, but it doesn't support the newer molten salt reactors. I think I just need to change one variable in the source code to make it compatible, but I can't do that through inspect element. After downloading the source code, I'm stuck on how to edit it and run it on my machine. The GitHub instructions suggest cloning xtl and xtensor and using CMake, but I'm not familiar with how any of this works. Can anyone guide me on how to get this program running after I edit the code?

To get this program up and running, you'll need to have CMake version 3.14 or higher and a C++17 compiler installed, along with a program called 'make'. First, you'll run CMake to build the Makefile, and then use the make command to compile the program. Just make sure you follow the instructions to place the xtl and xtensor folders in the correct parent directory.

How do I actually download 'make'? The ones I found online look sketchy. Also, can you clarify what it means to put xtl and xtensor in the parent directory? What should the file structure look like?
