Template:Solar power mechanics

While the is in the world, it checks light level (number between 0 and 1) and the environment and adjusts its output every 10 seconds based on the following criteria:
 * If the is underground or in an area with a light level lower than 0.2, it does not produce power.
 * If the is on spacestation or a ship, it always produces u of power, regardless of light or day/night cycle.
 * On regular planets it produces between 1u and 5u of power: 1u if, 2u if  , 3u if  , and (4 * (1 + light))u if  . Light levels higher than 1 are considered to be 1.
 * Background walls behind the don't reduce the power directly, but they reduce the light level, and can bring it below the minimum 0.2.
 * Being submerged in liquid reduces the power output by 95%.
