Solar panels

Solar panels output is simulated. Fixed panels orientation is taken into account, and traking panels are simulated around the pivot. A portion of the flux is blocked by the atmosphere, depending on density and path length.


Algorithm details

Dependency information is preserved in recipes, and all the recipes are then executed using an iterative algorithm that is order-less, work at arbitrary timesteps, and is not limited by storage capacity.
