Use Horizontal Solar Generators for Time-Based Power

Directional Placement Strategy

Horizontal Solar Generators track the sun's position and output varies throughout the day. Place generators facing east to capture peak morning power, or west for afternoon peaks. Unlike vertical generators, these require careful orientation to maximize efficiency.

Preventing Obstruction Loss

Keep the front face of horizontal generators completely clear of solid blocks. Even nearby structures will reduce or completely block output. Check your setup at different times of day using Engineer's Goggles to confirm the generator is producing power.

Combining with Vertical Generators

Horizontal generators produce zero power at night and during rain. Pair them with vertical generators or other rotation sources to maintain consistent mechanical output. This hybrid approach ensures your machinery runs reliably across all weather conditions and times of day.
