The Advanced Gas-Cooled Nuclear Reactor is exactly what it sounds like: a nuclear reactor cooled by gas. To get it running and producing stable power, you'll need fuel rods, some moderator gas to actually make power from it, and coolant gas to cool it all down with so you don't turn the station into a radioactive hellscape.

So you have access to a nuclear reactor, and want to kill lots of people. You're in luck, there's a lot of things you can do! Adding tons of plasma to the moderator will increase K too much for the control rods to handle, and a meltdown will be almost guaranteed. Alternatively, clog the coolant output so that the pressure builds up enough to cause a blowout, which is much more lethal. You can also set the pressure on one of the pumps to zero but keep it on to trick people into thinking it's working and something else is wrong. As with most sabotage a skilled engineer may be able to fix what you do, but that's nothing a little murder can't prevent from happening. Be sure to wear radiation protection if you want to survive the nuclear hell you're trying to create.
