Ari Posted December 6, 2019 Report Share Posted December 6, 2019 I don't see it on the wiki anywhere. I know there is "wind power" but... how do you make that? I've figured out that you need sails for a windmill, but that's it. Is there a tutorial or explanation somewhere? What parts do I need to make and how do I hook them together?

redram Posted December 6, 2019 Report Share Posted December 6, 2019 @Aira You'll want to search the handbook for "sails", "axle", "gears", and "rotor". Those are the four parts you need. You have to apply the sails in groups of 4 to the rotor (I think you can only craft them in groups of 4 anyway maybe). It would definitely be nice if they all shared a common hidden keyword in the handbook, like 'windmill' or something. Rather than having to search them up individually. I believe the gears have to be flanked by axles that are supported by something solid, iirc. So you can't just make a freestanding windmill of nothing but the parts. They need at least a bit of support. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ari Posted December 6, 2019 Author Report Share Posted December 6, 2019 Thanks a lot. I would never have figured all that out. Looking forward to automating my quern! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tyron Posted December 6, 2019 Report Share Posted December 6, 2019 I'll add a short paragraph on that into the handbook for next release. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Drago Posted December 9, 2019 Report Share Posted December 9, 2019 If they had a common keyword i would suggest power Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
