Player Tips & Tricks
- You can place your solar panels in a ring around the equator of a planet, if you want a consistent power supply without using any Accumulators.
- You can place your solar panels on and near both poles of a planet. This had two advantages compared to placing them near/around the equator: 1) each one typically produces 30-80% more energy per planetary day because they will always be getting sunlight, even when the sun is at its farthest away point, and 2) it is possible to get a consistent supply of power with as few pannel as desired, compared to placing them around the equator, which forces to place panels around the entire equator. It should be noted that, the higher the axial inclination of the planet, the more energy a pannel near the pole of the "Summer Zone" will produce per day compared to a pannel near the "Winter Zone". However, the further away the pannel is from the pole, the less this has an effect.
