work this mod can you tell my

it does work on DS's very well. I use them on my servers.

Can you please update the mod so it can be used on dedicated servers? Thanks.

the output was barely changed so it's ok

skall, they still have the 2015 energy balance (i have tested it) its no longer proportional

they are several times smaller, output is proportional

they give out several times less energy

Needs a textures update too still has the 2015 Textures

someone should update this mod, if its simpile enough i might do it. theoretically all i would have to do is change the balance

current

what is the latest update that this can run on

Rememeber this is an old mod from 2015 and is balanced to the original game.

Couple notes.

The max power output of a standard panel in space is .15 Mw. Your panels are scaled for .12 (actually closer to .115).
Additionally the build cost is solar cells is the same. It uses less iron but about the same silicon. Iron is easier to get.
There is also a weight issue. I noticed it when building on mars (0.9) gravity. At 14 standard panels Hinges and rotors only need 33.6 mNs to move. But your panels at 28 needed 48mNs to move.

I do like their looks better and i ofter prefer their spacing/placement to the default. If these issues are addressed i would gladly use this mod. Feel free to message me for clarification.

when I put a solar panel the game crash

The critical errors listed were due to a corrupted install of SE itself- reinstalling SE fixed the errors I was getting

With the new release there is a series of critical errors of the following type:
"object reference not set to an instance of an object"

needs to be updated gives critical error

Theses do still work. I use them.

this WAS a great mod. no upkeep = broken

I am clearing out my mods and getting rid of unsupported mods, this being one of them.

does this still work? I tried using it on a MP server and every time I try to place a solar panel I get disconnected...

Interesting mod, I would have use it if it had huge solar panels. The less block used in a build, the smoother it is server and client side. The solar panel are more demanding because their power output is always in flux, multiply that by a great number of panel, you got a lot of entities to track. By merging several panels into one, you have the same output for a fraction of the load on the computer.

Damn why wasn't this showing when i searched the key word "solar". How hard can it be. Anyways, thank you. I don't understand why you're the only one that thought of this. I had this in mind forever, these solar pannels were too big sometimes and just made everyhing look like crap.

This is a great mod, except it does not seem to work on small ships(from what ive noticed, anyways). That, and it needs texture update.

Mod is great, but please add better textures on it, looks really bad tho.

Any chance of upgrading the models to the new version?

niggie cheesae

my perfectionism thanks you

That would be nice so sick and tired of balance problems compared to the fact that we use these as our main source of power in REAL LIFE! in space...

If its ok, I am working on a version of this with 10 x power output and attempting to update the models

I love these panels!!!, can you or someone make retractable, rollable, sizable , shapable Solar panel Sails or Foldable solar blankets 1x1 1 to 10 size Large n Small?

THIS has to be implemented in MAIN GAME

These are great but can't use them anymore because the models and textures no longer match the game's vanilla blocks

@Xenori Read below.

Can anyone inform me if there is an updated version or revamp of this? id really like the models to match up with the new model.

Any luck trying to import the models?

i tried but i can not work with the source models, i get constant crashes and freezes in 3ds max when i load them

Or update them to the new textures done by Tartaross:

Just curious: will you be updating the models to fit with the new panel design?

CANNOT live without this mod on my saves, brilliant :) thank you for continuing to support this mod, hope the update comes soon :)

Thanks a ton, mate :)

@Tartaross Inc. sure, go for it :)

Hey man, those look really good and are nearly exactly what i am looking for. I wondered, if you could allow me to redo the textures and tweak with the value a bit and upload it as a standalone mod, of course giving you full credit. That would be beyond awesome :)

Any chance of the metal grids being removed from the materials? They aren't part of the vanilla solar panels any more.

Awesome! If only we could align blocks at 45 degree angles, then I wouldn't have needed smaller panels.

Yes - very nice- and an update with the new solarcell gfx would be VERY nice even more :)

Any plan to update the texture to the new solar panel?

Perhaps larger panels that continue the "theme" set by the smaller ones (with scaled power output, of course) would be the answer to @Aecnoril's request?
What I mean is adding sizes like this:
Large ships:
8x1x1, 8x2x1, 4x4x1, 8x4x1 (etc.)
Small ships:
10x2x1,20x5x1, 10x10x1, 20x10x1 (etc.)

Idea is that you can (sometimes) replace multiple smaller panels with one larger one.
That would reduce block counts, and might reduce lag due to power calculations (on really large arrays).

I don't use solar panels very often, but when I do it's these panels.
They're just plain better at being able to fit somewhere without having to base the entire design around them. Great for communications repeaters between planets and stuff like that.

WOw nice job but can you fix a little bugs ? :)

Found a bug where the "Centered" panels have Potentail, but keep reading that their Output is 0. I waited 3 days for my hover bike to charge. When I switched from the cetnered variant to the "edge" variant, they began charging right away.

Love the mod though, and I love the centered panels. If we could get a hotfix for this, that woulbe great.

Thank you.
