Solar Panels Positioning System

Open jrddunbr opened this issue 4 years ago • 1 comments

  • [ ] Crank Solar Panels
  • [ ] Motorized Solar Panels (simple motor - user needs their own control circuit)

Solar panels will be able to be positioned in 3 ways:

  • Not at all
  • By using a crank on the side that must be turned by a player manually
  • By using an electric motor which is powered by the solar panels (or not) and whose orientation is controlled by the solar panel (or not)

Potentially, a voltage can be provided to rotate the panels as desired, this is by creating a positive or negative voltage to the motor.

I would have initially thought having the angle set based on the control voltage, but having it based on power supplied is genius and a lot more realistic. I love it!
