How does the solar panle work?
How to use the Solar Panel :
Step 1.
Place the Solar Panel in direct sunlight.
Step 2.
Attach wire to a Truck battery, and attach that to the Solar Panel.
Step 3.
Attach a 4plug socket to the Solar Panel.
(This will be used to transfer power from the Solar Panel to a convenient location for you to attach other things)
Step 4.
With the 4plug socket attached walk to your desired connection hub & place the 4plug socket down.
Step 5.
Connect a Cable Reel to the 4plug socket and attach it to whatever electrical device of your choosing.
Step 6.
Turn on both the electrical device of your choosing, and the Solar Panel.

Enjoy the power.

The truck battery seems to act as a catalyst to allow the Solar Panel to produce power while the sun is down.
The solar panel should (I haven't tested to confirm) charge the Truck Batter during the day.

You can turn off the Solar Panel to cut the power to all the electronics at once.
(Great for if you've got a lot of lighting attached to 1 solar panel)

Example.

I have 2 4plug sockets attached to my solar panel.

1 of the 4plug sockets is connected to my 3 spot lights for my watch tower.

the other 4plug socket is connected to my compound lights.

at night, I go to my Solar Panel and turn it on... turning on all 7 of my spot lights.

There are other ways to use the Solar Panel, this is just the best that I've found.

We had a similar issue. Solar Panel working just fine but at some point it just stopped tho everything was pristine and set up right. Any new insights?
For now rebuilding the chain from scratch helped. But bug is still there

Is this bug still present?

Edit: I set up a test, and connected a 4-plug socket to solar panel. Connected Xmas lights and two Construction Lights. After scheduled server restart, all lights were still on ... even after leaving the render area before the restart, and returning after restart.

So, this issue looks resolved.

That's great news ma boy - sadly this game is practically dead again so I will most likely not find out myself.

Spoke too soon anyway ... sometimes it is still working after restart ... sometimes not.

Since the 1.11 update it doesn't seem to accept the truck battery anymore when a metal wire is attached to it , and if you put the battery in first and then try to attach the metal wire in the slot for it....it doesn't let you either ! So i'm kind of out of recoursefull options here......pls help or if you can , make it compatible and usefull again thank you very much !
