Major Update: The Solar Panel devkit files have been renamed from "SolarPanel_BP" to "RedDwarf_SolarPanel_BP" to avoid conflicts with mods that also named their solar panel "SolarPanel_BP".

Similar name updates were made to the batteries. The spawn codes have been updated accordingly on the mod description page.

In order to migrate to the new Solar Panels, please pick-up and re-place the existing solar panels. Outdated batteries will be automatically updated when you place them in the new Solar Panel.

Everything should be pretty seamless in-game. I made sure you didn't lose your Solar Panels, and that you could upgrade the structures yourself whenever you want.

Additional Updates:

  • Bugfix: Fixed an issue with Solar Panels not recognizing batteries that were crafted at night, until the following day.

  • Quality-of-Life Update: The Solar Panel will automatically allow any crafting materials that are required to build the batteries in the Solar Panel's inventory. All other items are denied, to prevent the Solar Panel from being used as a storage box.

  • Bugfix: Fixed placement glitches where the solar panel would "jump" after placement.

  • Bugfix: Fixed issue where preview structure would incorrectly show green when snapping to a cable, even if the structure couldn't be placed. (This is a bug with the base game.)

  • Updated error message to indicate that the solar panel must be placed on a structure floor.

  • Removed the build-height restrictions.

  • Reduced mod file-size by roughly 50%.
