What

Option to connect Solars with circuit network wires and read their signal

Why?

This opens more electric network managment options and manual lights control (also option to use colored lights as light source at night only)

I think you'll have more success in the Gameplay Help forum. All the existing tools in the game make detecting daylight possible, if not necessarily easy.

Yeah, i figured, and created setup for that pupouse using solars and accumulators, and had a thought that it would be much cleaner and nicer if you could just read from solar directly, that seems pretty intuitive to have that. I was suprised when i started and could not connect wire to solar.
