Subscribing for the Atmos setup. Already done mine, filtering for O2 and N2 for now, had some hurdles with heat, complete hindsight hooking the furnace to my waste distribution loop without cooling first. Now my air is being generated at too cool temperatures, will research a more efficient way to cool down waste gas without freezing the whole distribution and wasting more power to heat my pressurised base, thinking about programming an IC10 to redirect waste input through a radiator loop only while the temperature is above room temp, that way all my gases should be very neutral and easy to heat and cool on demand without wasting too much heat generated by the furnace only to heat up again...

Like the bridge Idea, I plan on trying it out on my next run on the moon.

You don't need to leave the power output of the solar panels towards the Sun. Just adjust the horizontal angle accordingly. If you leave the power output to the west, for example, just rotate the horizontal axis to 270 degrees. The same is true to any angle you deploy the panels.

define solarpanel HASH("StructureSolarPanelDual") define daylightsensor HASH("StructureDaylightSensor") define Daylightsensor HASH("Daylight Sensor") start: lbn r0 daylightsensor Daylightsensor Vertical Sum sb solarpanel Vertical r0 sb solar panel Horizontal 359 j start do it just like the guy but until for the logic reader and the batch writer you can take an IC housing and an IC10 copy and paste this commands from above on your computer and it will work *important you need to place the Daylight Sensor like the guy on the video, *this is for the moon only

We want more! We want more! ;) just sad that it stopped there. But I understand that the arrival of KSP 2 took you off this serie :)

I will hopefully make more, I am currently just swamped with so many good games that even I am struggling to keep up. I love stationeers, and I fully intend to give them more episodes :-). Just have to make few Star Citizen, KSP, KSP2, Juno, and Occupy Mars episodes which is kinda hard when I have only 2h/day for everything youtube releated (you know work, kids, house, etc). Rest assured stationeers is one of my all time favorites, and I will be playing A LOT more :-). For the time being look at my playlists, there should be at least 3-4 playlist with 20+ episodes each, some little older though

Frankly, I never really understood why so many people take preference to the dual port solar panels. It seems so wasteful of cable; why run two cable lines when one will suffice? To each their own, I suppose.

When you hear the reason I am sure you will crack up :-) I was thinking I will save on the heavy cable coil 😂

I don't understand why you connected data ports in solar panels to battery output. Also I don't get why sensor is on opposite side then data inputs in solar panels. Basically I don't get your design XD

@GrunfWorks Жыл бұрын

It is not optimal, but I wanted my Solar panels oriented in a way North - South, also I wanted my batteries near the base. So my design was not made by optimizing for solar automation but rather optimizing for how i want my base to look. Battery output is connected to APC, and it is only a coincidence that the Data from the sensor is on the same network, no particular reason. Also i wanted the ability to use only 2 logic chips, reader and writer without additional calculation. What would be your suggestion how to put it, as I am sure mine can be alot better, but i could use a tip or 2 😀

@radoslawmazurekwaw Жыл бұрын

@@GrunfWorks I think this is good enough for small outpost. But if you expand this base, you will need to change normal cables to heavy also in output side where are also data ports connected. I solved it by separating data from power network entirely. But it's totally different layout. I have solar panels on roof and batteries inside the base. One network is data network with sensor and cables connected to data ports. Logical circuits are on the wall near sensor. Another one is power network - from solar panels to batteries and further from batteries to the rest of the base. Hard to describe exact layout, I would need to draw it somehow ;) But perhaps you get the idea.

@radoslawmazurekwaw Жыл бұрын

@@GrunfWorks Oh and one important thing. With such layout you really need to color code cables. Without that you have short circuit guaranteed :D

@@GrunfWorks Just wanted to say I actually did care about the "bridge". Some people for example may forget to consider building solar panels in a non-obstructed view of the sun. And it's a design approach, who knows who may need to hear it? Anyway, if people reeeaallly don't wanna hear about it, they can just...fast forward a few seconds?
