[[File:Windmill animation.gif|left]][[File:windmill_anim.gif|right]]The power generated by a windmill is transmitted either horizontally through the surrounding twelve tiles, or downward through its center tile. If you wish to use the center tile, you must first [[channel]] out the central tile and build the windmill on top of an existing [[axle|vertical axle]] or [[gear assembly]] (or the actual machine you wish to power). As the center tile of the windmill has an implied floor, this does not permit passage as long as the windmill stands. | [[File:Windmill animation.gif|left]][[File:windmill_anim.gif|right]]The power generated by a windmill is transmitted either horizontally through the surrounding twelve tiles, or downward through its center tile.
