SmartRotors: Solar

描述
SmartRotors, rotors with built-in functionality for ease of use.
This is the solar variant, it automatically tracks the sun. Other variants to follow later, currently planned are VTOL and PMW.

Isn’t this the same effect as running a script on rotors? Yes.
But I can run this on a server where scripts are disabled? Also yes.

Simply place the base part and a 2 axis solar tracking system is automatically set up.

Some welding required if in survival mode.
This is composed of a baseplate and a hinge rotors.
For single-axis tracking, remove the 2nd axis hinge parts and the baseplate will continue to work.
You will notice the shiny dome “sensor” always faces the sun. Place the solar panels to the rotor ends appropriately, the system will continue to track as the sun or the grid it’s mounted to is moved.

Included in this mod:
  • SmartRotor:Solar; Conveyored style for large grid O2 and/or solar farming.
  • SmartRotor:Solar Type B; Double-ended style, non conveyored, for large and small grid.
  • Solar support; This is a large grid pole with panel mounting structure to mount solar panels to.
  • Simple rotor; Vanilla logic versions of the slim baseplate rotor and hinge, small and large grid. Feel free to use these for any application.

Additional notes:
If the structure seems unstable, try turning the torque down. Same issue as with other rotor scripts, the feedback loop is not "one size fits all" so it helps to tune the motor's power to the weight of your solar structure.
Additionally, consider that the maximum torque is the same as vanilla rotors. If in gravity, too heavy of an array may not work, try to build it in a balanced way so that not so much torque is required, or split it into multiple smaller arrays.
The "Share Inertia Tensor" is a good option to increase stability as well, especially for large arrays on slow moving craft or bases.
There is a plain 15m (6 block) version of the support pole included in the MA Stackable Wind Turbines mod, it is a handy way to get your array off the ground.
POLE PARTS: https://gtm.steamproxy.vip/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=2302105467

Known Issues:
Unable to reattach top part on slim bases. Re-adding works.
Automatic placed hinges will not work in cockpit tools bars. (good thing they are automatic)
Unable to delete automatic placed solar hinge top part with CTRL + X shortcut when creative tools enabled.

Those seem rather minor compared to the gained function

The conveyed version works perfectly as it seems. The version without the conveyor does not align properly to the sun.

@Bolek: I had the same problem, it seems it allows only to pass gas, it was its purpose at the beginning. Fortunately, there's an ingame workaround now using an advanced rotor, a hinge, a camera and a turret controller that you can ask to track the sun. Hope this helps

I got a little problem with conveyored version. I hooked up 4 algae farms to them, also conveyor piped all the way to food processor. Everything is green but it can't suck algaes to food processor. Any thougths?

As almost every time, this is not true. :shizukaSkeptic:
The mod still works.
When it is not working for you, check the description or tell us with what combination of mods it is not working.

Don't use this mod, its old and doesn't work anymore. Also it has a bad case of the wobbles.:missing:

noticing some of the rotors no longer track the sun.

Small version of the Type B doesnt work with the slim rotor on tracking, it just freely rotates even when a force is applied for the solar tracking
Funtime Gabe 6 月 26 日 下午 2:56 
can you make the Solar Support have a half version (1/2 the length)?
im wanting one cause i gotta change something on a build because it just spinned out of control slowly due to collision issue, so i was gonna put a cylinder block between the support and bearing type B

i did not specify any progression so i apologize for whatever the game decided to do there
🅂🄸🅂🄺  [作者] 5 月 2 日 上午 12:19 
@Driku that's true. I did not touch the progression entries for the mod for ages. I will take a look at that
@Killer🔥keys don't worry. I don't know if it was communicated by keen at all.
