Update: 15 Feb, 2017 @ 7:26am

Version 2.3.0:

- added the support of command line arguments like suggested by Procrasturbator (Thanks, buddy!)
- you can alternate the script's behavior now while it's running with a button panel or from any cockpit or flight seat (on the same grid as the programmable block with the script) with the following commands:
- pause (pauses the script execution and stops all rotors)
- resume (resumes the script execution)
- rotate horizontalAngle verticalAngle (set the rotors to a user defined angle and pause the script execution, e.g.: rotate 90 90)
- just type in these arguments after you pulled down the programmable block to the hotbar and chose "Run". the timer block however must not contain any arguments for the script to work properly
- faster rotor movement is back. now all rotors rotate faster when entering night mode or the newly introduced command line rotation and slow down if they come closer to the desired angle
- the aligning rotor speed however was decreased a bit to compensate overshooting

Version 2.2.2:

- fixed an error in the rotation logic that could cause rotating in the wrong direction several times

Update: 5 Feb, 2017 @ 4:07am

Version 2.2.1:

- rotors, that are currently not used, are safety locked by the script (suggestion by Vorg - thx!)
- tweaked the rotation behavior a bit in order to find the correct rotation direction faster

Version 2.2.0:

- extended the amount of information that is shown on the LCD panel
- now the overall power production and usage of all solar panels is shown
- built in the ability to show basic output information on corner LCDs (terminal group support for virtually unlimited corner LCDs)
- fixed a possible bug (that I couldn't reproduce) that throws an error related to the groups feature

Version 2.1.2:

- I overthought my last update and changed the script in that respect, that it directly reads the solar panel's max output value instead of extracting it out of it's terminal text

Update: 29 Jan, 2017 @ 4:14am

- had a typo in the last update

Update: 29 Jan, 2017 @ 3:51am

Version: 2.1.1

- tweaked the reading of the power output to work better with modded panels

Update: 23 Jan, 2017 @ 4:50am

Version: 2.1.0

This is a community inspired update to fight against the clang (the monster in the machine that destroys our lovely rotors). The changes were mostly inspired by TiGeR and jb_aero. Thanks for your suggestions guys!

- turned off the angle snapping of the rotors
- rotors are now only started and stopped based on their current angle
- reduced the rotation speed of all operations
- all rotors now rotate at the same time instead of waiting for the main rotor to find the sun
- vertical rotors now have a main rotor they orient on to help aligning them better during the day
- made night mode more intelligent to find the shortest way to the desired base angle

Update: 19 Jan, 2017 @ 5:01am

Version: 2.0.2

- made some minor changes to the rotation logic and the night mode
