It's great to see someone just genuinely enjoy the hell out of a game. And not just a game, every game you play. 👍
Thank you, I wouldn’t take the time to make a video about a game I didn’t enjoy the hell out of though lol.
The orientation of the light sensor DOES matter, but once you figure out which way it needs to point (only 4 possibilities), the rest of it works perfectly without a script. Many thanks for the vid. 👍
Yeah, could do. lol. Maybe I'll make another video about this, Make this system even simpler.
But I feel like the orientation of the daylight sensor is still relative to the orientation of the solar panel base, more than the sun.
Like I have a base with two separate solar circuits on either side and a daylight sensors on each pointed in two different directions, as well as panels in reversed orientation from the other circuit.
Why would I do that? The sun travels directly over head between the different sets of solar panels, and sensors.
So I do *agree* with you the orientation of the sensor matters. But I think there's more ways to orient it... depending on the system.
And I mean there's no right or wrong way to do it, as long as it work right?
I just want to help get people started or give them ideas when they're stuck.
Which is why comments like yours are great because someone reading it might find another way to do something, because I just make stuff up as I go and hope it works. Then we edit it to look like I had a plan the whole time. lol.
*Thank you* for the comment, Always appreciate feed back and input here.
(especially if it means I can make another video or helps somebody)
You have a good day my friend.
Oh my god thank you so much! finally worked!!! easy and simple!
Happy to help :) easy and simple is like my whole thing. lol.
We’re also working on making simple IC10 solar tracking… But it’s not going very well.
This is HILARIOUS! But I am not sure why. 🤣
All that matters is you enjoyed it bro.
Your charisma is so highly developed. It’s an incredible pleasure to watch your videos, follow your speech and facial expressions :)
p.s: broken english from translator
Thank you :D I very much appreciate that. The translation is very good.
I like your energy my dude : ]
Thank you, I like your comment my friend :D
You are hilarious man. I love it new Sub here
CZcams told me to be smart and help people with games... Or be funny, and that first bit was clearly not an option. lol.
Thank you for the comment, YOU HAVE A GOOD DAY! :D
@@TremorBoria you are doing it right, thank you
Hello, i did it but the horizontal have a problem - i think) because it is almost in front of the sun, but a little bit shifted to the outer side of the sun (apart from the sun itself), it does not aim at its center, what should I do?
Hello, is your solar panel raised off the ground because having it on top of more than one or two iron frames can cause it too look miss aligned but if you look at the base of the panel it should still say 99% efficiency. If that’s not what’s up, you may have to rotate your daylight sensor (I have another like 2 minute solar video that shows what I mean about rotating the sensor) and or double check your values on the logic chips to make sure they didn’t do something weird (I don’t care what anybody says sometimes they change on their own). If none of that helps what planet are you on and efficiency is the panel showing?
thank you
Your welcome :D
@TremorBoria I miss the good old days when you just divided by point seven or whatever, lol
@@jacobzzz698 Me too, and when pipes didn't explode cause they got cold. It took me 2 hours to figure out why my furnace kept blowing up this week after the update. Lmao. Good fun though.
ooh thanks! this was awesome, might not be a tutorial but it worked great as one :D finally able to set up tracking solarpanels :D
One little problem tho, the cable went bad and blowed up, changed to heavy cable, or i did something dumb xD don't know if you can put too much power throu a cable? 9 panels in total on one cable o.O
Happy to help, man :]
Regular cable is good for 5kw and heavy cable is 100kw. Off the top of my head, solar panels pump out 500w in ideal conditions… 9 you say? Might have done something wrong, lol.
I’m not sure because I can’t see what you’ve built from here. But I believe you’ll figure it out.
Could try building a tablet and putting the network cartridge in it. Help you scan electrical circuits.
Thank you for the comment have an excellent day.
@Tremor Boria You should try IC10 coding the solar tracking.
And indeed I will.
But not next week, next week is green house, cause I let all my plants die... Again.
Lmao IC10 is such an unnecessary way to just track the sun. Single axis tracking works on Mars.
But you're right we should do that, Thanks man.
@@TremorBoria but it makes the base more cleaner where your not taking up space that could be used for something else instead of logic I/O’s everywhere. And the code would be in one place where you can save the mips code and use it again if something goes wrong Lmao.
@@GamingGuy256636 Oh man, That's such a good point. What a valid argument for spending the time to code a device. Usually I just hear "but computer is cool"
We're gonna do some IO10 code after the green house.
I am gonna make a video about coding solar panels. But we might not actually use it in the base yet. We'll just keep it on standby running a single panel for now.
THEN we're gonna figure out some other stuff to code.
Lmao and believe me, Things WILL go wrong.
IC10 is so much simpler í thought it would be. I've never coded before and í love it. You can check if its worth it by checking the power draw, i think it's if you have more than 6 logic things an IC is worth it.
@@snortymcsnortface We're gonna start the IC10 coding when the base I am currently working on is livable :) which I am thinking will be this weekend, I Hope.
Although yesterday I accidentally made a video I had already made again, again... lol.
Bro 😂 did you make a whole video to spite me lmao
Uh, yes. Yes I did. Do you feel seen? Lol.
@@TremorBoria lmao yes
@@Abstractle.Fractile Nice
Okay, way too much info in this comment, but oh well.
First, technically it's only 2 axis, which results in a simulated three degrees of freedom. It can rotate about the z axis (horizontal), and about the x and y axis, depending on z rotation.
Also, new to the game, so I don't actually know if it matters, but doesn't the math unit output to the bottom? Because it's not hooked up in the video. So maybe efficiency drops as the sun gets more overhead, and the 10 degrees is more apparent, but I'm really not certain.
And lastly, (I should probably check out the website because it likely says all this), but if anyone's happens to not face the right way, just rotate the daylight sensor until it's correct. You can also offset with math, but it may take additional math units and actually calculating the offset.
I change the name of the video then.
I’ve never bothered to hook up the bottom of the math unit, but that doesn’t mean you shouldn’t lol
I did say at the beginning we could just rotate the sensor.
These videos are not tutorials. They’re just what I am doing that day, I guess I forgot to say that in this video.
But most importantly this video was just made to spite one person lol.
Thanks for the input man. I am gonna change the title, you have a good day.
@@TremorBoria this is what I get for commenting when I'm in bed for the night lol. It wasn't a dig at you, just additional info for passerby. I love the content, and your neat wiring pleases me lolol
@@g45h96 Oh, I didn't take it as a dig sir. I appreciate you correcting the title of my video (It got more views because of it) I thought your comment was well worded, concise, and factually correct. I appreciate the input, and intent to help others (and myself)
Yes the neat wiring please me as well, I tried painting it at one point but I feel like it looks cheap after. I keep telling myself it's not painted it's sleeved but inside I know I used a paint tool to do it.
You have a good day my friend. Enjoy this small novel of a comment I have left you. Lol.
@@TremorBoria you have forever cursed my bases to not be able to use colored wires 😭 I never thought of it that way, but I don't think I'll be able to unsee it
OH NO! That’s exactly how this happened to me. And now your doomed to spread the coloured wire curse to another.
Why not just code?
Glad you asked, 2 reasons.
1. I make simple videos to help people get started in Stationeers.
and 2. Coding is VERY BORING to watch. lol.
At some point we will make some coding Videos, I just haven't yet.
Thank you for the comment, You have a good day.
@@TremorBoria This is beginner friendly. Coding will help tremendously for late game automations . And its much cleaner than this.
@@joshbasnet3014 Yes I am very aware, my friend.
I'd like to make coding videos. But every time we get one done, its just boring to watch.
Not the games fault, it's my fault.
I am not sure how to make it interesting yet.
I appreciate your comment though because someone who's watched video might not realize you could just iC10 the who system... And I should be mentioning that in my videos. Maybe I just start adding a "coding segment" to the every time.
😊 this is a fun little video! Did you do this because AF poked fun of your simple solar set up? I am excited to see the green house!🎉
Well I am happy you enjoyed it. But also no one has ever "poked fun at me" okay? I am the one who pokes fun! FUN HAS NEVER BEEN POKED UNLESS I AM THE ONE WHO IS DOING THE POKING! Lmao Yeah this video is because of his comment. I felt like simple tracking was good enough for Mars as the sun is basically over head. But then the numbers started to get to me. I couldn't stop looking at the efficiency. I was laying awake at night thinking about. I couldn't eat, I couldn't sleep, I had trouble focusing during stickball. Like 6 axis is 99% all day. You might say I am the lord of efficiency, I wouldn't say that. But you could if you wanted too. Tell your friends and family or whatever. Anyway I really appreciate all of your support for my videos and all of your comments all of the time. YOU HAVE A GOOD DAY Elite.
Ps. Greenhouse will be next week. It's gonna be a one video show.
@@TremorBoria This is not only the best thing you have ever written to me. But maybe the greatest thing anyone has ever written to anyone ever. I don’t know what stick ball is and I don’t think google is showing me what you mean lmao.
