Data ports can interact with [https://stationeers-wiki.com/Sensors#Daylight_Sensor Daylight Sensors] and [[Kit (Logic I/O)|logic i/o writers or batch writers]] to automatically rotate the panel to face the sun. | Data ports can interact with [https://stationeers-wiki.com/Sensors#Daylight_Sensor Daylight Sensors] and [[Kit (Logic I/O)|logic i/o writers or batch writers]] to automatically rotate the panel to face the sun. | ||
| − | At the extreme attitude settings (0/100) the solar panel still faces 15 degrees above the horizon. Thus the total arc of vertical rotation is only 150 degrees from input values 0-100. | + | At the extreme attitude settings (0/100) the solar panel still faces 15 degrees above the horizon. Thus the total arc of vertical rotation is only 150 degrees from input values 0-100. As of at least version 0.2.3263.16264, solar panels now accept input in degrees above the horizon instead of in percent, so the solar panels travel between inputs of 15 and 165, with 90 being straight up. |
Can also be destroyed by [[Storm|storms]], or left with very little health. Best course of action is to remove the solar panels when you are notified of a [[storm]] by a [[Weather Station]], Which allows you to replace them once the [[storm]] is over. | Can also be destroyed by [[Storm|storms]], or left with very little health.
