Big solar panel astroneer.
It only produces power when exposed to sunlight.
Follow me on twitter https.
It requires sunlight to provide power.
Small solar panels are crafted in your backpack s printer using copper this kind of panel can be placed on any item slot but in the backpack it will only produce power when placed on one of the widget slots see image on the right.
So i found this really tall solar pannel that looks like it s fallen off a space station and figured it could be of use as there is a little port on the side for what looks like the base tubes and little indicators on the sides that are blinking.
The medium solar panel is one of the power generators in astroneer it can be placed on two adjacent slots on a platform or vehicle.
Unlike the medium solar panel the solar array isn t required to be placed on a platform.
Wrecked solar arrays produce 2u s to 4u s of power varying dynamically depending on the angle of sunlight relative to the panel meaning the maximum of 4u s is typically unachievable on the equator of a planet.
The update also added a new item called extenders which can be used to connect power lines over long distances.
Just connect the extenders to the solar panel and connect them to a platform at your base.
Regardless of angle if sunlight exists at all in its view angle the wrecked solar array provides a minimum of 2u s.
The two panels are folded upward over the center when it is not exposed to sunlight.
The solar array is a power module in astroneer.
In this video i will show you how to setup giant solar panels to power your base please take the time to hit that like button.
Sorry if this is a stupid question i couldn t find any answers in the guides i took a look at so i was hoping someone could help me out.
