Thank you for your help!

Quick question on the process api. Is that something I should add to my init file, or include in my program above?

Hello, 

I'm working on a program to run my Big Reactor (ala Direwolf20's recent CC program)

I started yesterday knowing very little about writing code and have managed to program the basic function which I wanted to start out with. I'm hoping to add more monitoring and adjustment functions later as I learn more, but this what I need to start off.

I want my reactor to shut off when the energy buffer is at 90% and restart when the buffer is down to 10%. My buffer is currently 10mil RF.

It works, once. If I run when the buffer is near full, it will shut down, and if I run the program when the buffer is low, it will start the reactor. It does not, however, shut the reactor back down once it is near full unless I rerun the program.

My question is what do I need to add in order to have this run in the background and continuously manage my reactor?

Here's my code: 

component = require("component")

RF_BUFFER_MAX = 9000000

RF_BUFFER_MIN = 1000000

for _, reactor in pairs(REACTORS) do

  if reactor.getEnergyStored() >= RF_BUFFER_MAX then

    reactor.setActive(false)

    print("Reactor is offline")

  else if reactor.getEnergyStored() <=RF_BUFFER_MIN then

    reactor.setActive(true)

    print("Reactor is online")

  end

end

Thank you for any insight that you can give!
