1 does the roof have support.
Rimworld solar roofs.
Adds customizable roofing with transparent greenhouse roofing and photovoltaic solar roofing.
And with a more recent release i think a17 there are 2 separate shades of green so you can easily see which are thin constructed roofs and which are overhead mountain.
Believe that different color shading was part of a mod that zorba made zorba now works on rimworld and i think he ported a few of his mods into vanilla right away.
A roof will not be fully built in a room that is more then 11 blocks between two parallel sides.
Each controller has a max output of 2500w.
If that distance is more then that then you will only get a partial roof around everywhere but the position where it lacks enough support 2 roof construction is a low priority.
It has much smaller space requirements than a wind turbine but provides no power at night or during an eclipse it can be placed in a wind turbine s exclusion zone with no effect on the turbine.
This can be used to create outdoor roofed areas to prevent snowfall or item deterioration or indoor unroofed areas protected solar panels indoor growing areas.
Each solar tile produces 200w during full sun.
Rimworld alpha 17 mod adds in solar panel roofing as well as a transparent type of roofing.
Works on 0 19 0 as well as 1 0 0.
Maintenance required for thick roofs only maintenance is a long tick once every 2000 ticks.

It always starts out in passive mode when you first give it power and it needs to be powered to be able to switch to active mode.
Rt solar flare shield.
Solar generators may be protected by surrounding them with walls but they must stay unroofed to operate.
Reworked from vendan s original idea.
It will switch between the two automatically then a solar flare or an emi event starts stops.
Until some building logic is reworked there are a few ways to easily create collapses.
If there is no supporting wall or rock.
Rimworld workshop ratysz s workshop.
There is no limit to the number of controllers connected to a section of tiles.
A solar generator provides up to 1700w of power from sunlight.
Suggestion solar freaking roofs self rimworld submitted 2 years ago by geilaj so you don t have to drive far to see solar panels on roofs why doesn t our colony 3000 years in the future have the ability to mount solar panels on roofs.
