Welcome to stationeers unofficial wiki.
Stationeers solar panel logic.
If i need more power i spend 5 seconds 3 of those crafting the panel and the other 2 constructing it at the array.
Stationeers e02 fully automatic solar panel rotation computer.
How to automate solar panel tracking with logic chips.
Set the input to logic math.
Set the output variable to vertical all done that s it your panels will now auto track the sun.
Click to select what variable to write to the machines.
For example selecting solar panel will write to all solar panels on the network.
This is usefull as you can tell how much longer night will last.
5 solar panels all manually separated by 20 degrees vertically horizontal to the sunrise.
Solar logic can be confusing but manually aiming your solar panels is just way too time consuming and inefficient.
After the sun sets the panels will reverse direction and track the sun through the night and reach 0 at sunrise.
Thus the total arc of vertical rotation is only 150 degrees from input values 0 100.
Set the memory to 1 8 set the math to divide the reader from the memory set the batch writer to write the math chip output to the vertical of solar panels.
How to automate solar panel tracking with logic chips.
At the extreme attitude settings 0 100 the solar panel still faces 15 degrees above the horizon.
Use your wrench to turn the panels left or right by 90 or 90 if needed depends on how you placed them.
The power port of the solar panels should feed a separate network from the logic network.
This has taken care of all my power needs.
Set the output type to solar panel.
Memory h minus.
Stationeers is being developed by rocketwerkz ltd directed by dean rocket2guns hall.
Data ports can interact with daylight sensors and logic i o writers or batch writers to automatically rotate the panel to face the sun.
Keep in touch on discord or reddit.
Currently there is no benefit to using logic io or computers to do anything for solar control.
Reads solar angle from the vertical sensor.
The value written will be what is captured by the variable input selector.
