indeed, lets protect those vulnerable solar panels with a tin roof. what if there is rain on them

im not going to say that it alone doomed my colony, but im pretty sure it was a major part of it.

Was starting up an mountain colony.
built a spolar panel to get power that worked for several days, needed another one so i built another one just next to the old one. worked fine untill a solar eclipse, (im not sure if it started not working after this event or later)
eclips ended but still no sunpower. has not been any solar power over 3 days now. (had to make sure that i was not going mad so i ran a couple of more days and still nothing)

Saving and reloading does nothing, restarting game does nothing.
No mods.

as i am typing this i starting to realise what is happeing, i built them almost against a mountain wall, for some reason the game tought that it was a good idea to put a roof over them. just using the remove roof tool made them work again.

im leaving the post here if others have/get the same problem
