It still doesn't work :(

"it doesn't work" doesn't tell me anything about your problem. Does the detailed information section of the programmable block (bottom right corner in the terminal overview) tell you anything?

Love it, i had to do some tweaking with the " but didnt take me more then 15-20 min to get it to work. Great script!

I can't seem to get my third rotor to move it just stays at 360 degrees do I need to add a second unique solar panel name to the script?

That actually depends on your detailed setup. If your "third rotor" can move the solar panel, it will move, if not, it won't (or at most by a few degrees).

Has this been tested in atmosphere?

I'm trying to get this to work on a planet. I think it's configured properly, but it says "average solar output 0w" and "hibernating"

Yes, it works just like in space.

You were playing on a dedicated server, weren't you?

I had to increase "Torque" as well as "Breaking Torque" to get this working. Otherwise it would just sit and keep reversing directions. This is holding a heavier array than your screenshots (6 large panels). This affects step 14 - crank both up, not just the brakes.

Works awesome now :)

Actually, by default, the Vanilla rotors have their torque value set to maximum.

I must have lowered it then when I was originally testing clearance...

Great script, got it working but I think you should add this to point 13: "Select timer block". It's not clear at present for noobs like moi. Great once I figured it out though

Actually, it says so in step 12 already ^^'

12, Exit the editor by clicking "Remember & Exit" and select the timer block in the console.

Ach does too.

Query: I've now got this set up working with 3 solar arays (six panels per array), each with it's own dedicated timer and programmable block.

Could I use the same timer for all three? Would require using the same timer name in each script and then dragging each programmable block into the set-up actions

I'm not running all three arrays on the same script as I need one panel in each array to position each array optimaly
