Stop Rotor on High Solar Power Output

Can't Get Duplicate Axis To Work
Hi,

Couldn't seem to leave a comment so I started a new discussion .

I have tried to setup a T shaped solar array and use the new duplicate axis to controll both Y rotors form the same programable block. I can't seem to get it to work, the first Y rotor is fine because it is the one being tracked and has the solar panel associated with it. But the second Y rotor will only continuously spin or stay put in one position.

Could you pleae either write some updated instructions or make a new instructional video showing how to use the new duplicate axis feature.

Thanks.

Please post your first run details as describred in the reporting bugs section. Will post more instructions soon. This feature is brand new and may contain bugs.

My world is a Survival non Dedicated Server
I have a dual axis solar panel setup in a T-shape [1 X rotor and 2 Y rotors, left and right side]

Output from the first run: [If you mean the text that comes up in the panel under faction info]

Initializing core...
X rotors: 1
Y rotors: 1
Solar panels/Oxygen farms: 1
Dual Axis mode enabled
Timer management enabled
[Number] Kw

Please post the duplicate configuration settings. Need names of all rotors
Landron 2015 年 12 月 10 日 上午 4:08 
Names of rotors:

Rotor X1
Rotor Y1
Rotor Y2

the settings i'm trying to use: [Don't know if this is the right way to do them or not]

const bool EnableDuplicateRotorX = false;
const bool EnableDuplicateRotorY = true;
const string NameOfDuplicateSourceX = "";
const string SearchForDuplicateDestX = "";
const string NameOfDuplicateSourceY = "Rotor Y1";
const string SearchForDuplicateDestY = "Rotor Y2";

The tracked panel seems to work fine but the other side of the T array is stuck at the opposite position, side on the panels look like an X.

Try reinstalling the rotor in another angle

It almost seems like the duplicate is working in reverse to the main, is there any way to reverse the duplicate in the code?

Not atm. But in a version or two.

I was able to get this working with one RotorX and one RotorY, but I can't get a second RotorY (i.e. a T shaped dual solar panel) to work. One RotorY will rotate but the other will not. The run outpit shows "Dual Axis mode enabled" but only 1 X rotor and 1 Y rotor. Any ideas?

For inverse duplicate Y you would have to use SearchForDuplicateDest1 or 2 + set InverseDuplicateRotor to true. The first run detail output does not list duplicate rotors(yet)

What I ended up having to do is set up two of this systems side by side on one solar panel tower.The left array controlled the whole thing with the X axis and it's own left side array of solar panels. The right array controlled a dummy X-rotor which did nothing (mount a light bulb or fancy pinwheel for fun) and then controlled it's actual right side array.

If you like you can publish a save, and i'll have a look when I have time.

First off, awesome mod man gj.
Two things.
1: I've also made a T-shaped solar aray and can't get it to work for some reason, when u have time to post a tutorial it would be much appreciated.
2: Sometimes the arrays on the Y-axel just keep going round and round... Will it breakthe script if I manually ad a max and min angle on the rotors so it stays within that angle?

got the same problem with Tshaped solar array and duplicate
