This mod is a hinge which is made specifically to fold up solar panels. It has a range of 180º. No scripts, just a normal rotor hinge.

There's kind of only 1 way to place this in the pattern with the solar panels, once you get started it can continue indefinitely for as long of a panel structure as you like. Obviously the more subgrids you create, the more clang you invite so try to keep it reasonable.

To set up like I did in the video: -Set the base hinge limit to 90º and half the speed of the rest of the hinges -Group them. Set control menu to group->"Reverse Direction"

That's about it. This mod is a simple block with no special scripts.

If you enjoy this mod and others, I can always use some beer money. :) Patreon, Paypal.

Don't forget to thumbs up. Enjoy!
