Tame the Meter!
Quick answer
Community label for the objective that distinguishes the basic ground panel from the roof version.
Recorded build reference · 0.8.10.842 · configuration record, not individually play-tested
Objectives and actionable steps
- Open the phone's energy meter and inspect daily usage.
- Buy solar panel blueprints from Meriam for the panels you need.
- Place and finish building the panels.
- Check that the ranch meets the electricity-efficiency objective.
Checks that can cause a stop
- The final check is electricity efficiency, not simply owning one panel. This configuration gives no fixed panel count or numeric efficiency target.
- Earlier player reports recommend the basic ground panel. The build checks a solar-item family; this alone does not verify that roof panels work.
Failure, recovery and continuation
- Failure trigger
- No quest-level failure trigger recorded
- How to recover after failure
- Restarts the current quest
- After success
- Starts a configured follow-up call
These route relations come from retained build fields; each branch is not runtime-tested.
Reward: No separate reward field is recorded; a follow-up call or next quest is not a reward.

The retained confirmations say one correctly placed ground panel is sufficient; exact quest title and prerequisite timing remain unverified. Community-confirmed
