Hello!

I've noticed there is a strange shadow under the solar array;

Also, really like the mod :)

wish the picture had loaded, any other ways I can see it?

This is likely a my fault thing in that I forgot to ensure the shadow didn't exist or something...

I've un-embedded the link, so you can click the link :) It looks to me like it is a solar panel shadow that is being displayed.

I've looked at the code, and I think I see the issue.
When looking at the game's data.raw file, the solar panel has this property set:

overlay = {layers = {
{filename = "__base__/graphics/entity/solar-panel/solar-panel-shadow-overlay.png",
height = 180,priority = "high",scale = 0.5,shift = {0.328125,0.1875},width = 214
}}},

And as 'overlay' is optional, I think if you add 'panel.overlay = nil' to your create_directional_panel(cdir) function, it should just work :)

Haha yeap, that sounds about right, I'll do an update, thanks =)
