Solar panels

Solar panel output is simulated. Fixed panel orientation is taken into account, and tracking 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, all the recipes are executed using an iterative algorithm that is order-less, works at arbitrary time steps and is not limited by storage capacity.
