Hi I have two questions relating heat damage. There was an option to disable it, but I can't find it anymore. Was it disabled? Also how can I prevent my solar panels from heating to 500 degrees and stopping generating electricity/exploding?
Edit:
I figured it out. If anyone else was wandering: you can edit thermalMassRatio, from 1 to whatever ridiculously high number (tinker panel, hidden properties, config tab). This way solar panels (or any part) will take forever to heat up.
@Toinkove I can't see it anywhere. Where exactly can I find it? I use mobile version
NVM I can see it
@Toinkove
It doesnt always work but a nice hack when it does.
Might have something to do with depth below surface or maybe what youre hiding them inside.
Solar panels can still create energy if you hide them inside the crafts outer shell.
It should be protected by the crafts heat shielding.
Use the translation tool to move them just under the surface and see if it effects heat and energy supply.
@Toinkove I know, but mine were overheating while I was orbiting Droo, a few minutes after I got out of it's shadow.
