Thx ! But still the same final issue, fusion reactor is disabled when I come back from space center. After more tests, it seems reactor is deactivated only when focused again (a ground microwave receiver confirm it) Maintaining ThermalPower locked has no effect, nor Megajoules on generators. Bah. I thought that I could bring back fission reactor to Kerbin. I'll do it when I'll dock another complex on the station.

I'm trying to upgrade my fission reactor power microwave network to fusion reactor power and I have a problem to maintain plasma heating of transmitting station. I define designs in sandbox mode (interstellar mod is very complete and sometimes very hard to understand and sandbox helps me) but the problem happens even in career mode. On a transmitting station, I designed my transmission station with a 3.75m fusion reactor connected on each side to a electrical generator (KTEC on a side and Direct conversion on the other side)(a KW is a KW ^^). A docked 2.5m fission reactor and 2.5m electric generator is used to start fusion reactor and perform orbital maneuvers (with a thermal rocket nozzle). At the Deployable Phased Array Microwave Transceiver transmit mode activated, a warning is displayed "Fusion Reactor plasma heating cannot be guaranteed, reducing power requirements is recommenced". As piority value on Megajoule demand on plasma heating is lower than microwave transmitter, I was hoping that everything remain stable. Unfortunately not ... Returning to space center shut off fusion reactor (not the case when vessel is maintained focused). Someone can explain me where I failed ? Or a way to limit beamed power ?
