Description
When a tracking solar panel distance to the zero altitude surface is below a certain (small) value, the body is not considered for sun occlusion anymore. Resulting in full sun exposure even on the dark.
To replicate:
- add a tracking solar panel (eg: gigantor) to the bottom of a vessel
- land on some place that is near zero altitude (eg: minmus flatlands)
- see the sun exposure being 1.0 when sun is occluded by the body

Seems to be happening under 1200m ish of height on minmus at least - cant replicate it on Kerbin, definitely confirmed though
