:: You sure about that? Look closely at the picture you reference. The front tile of each pump is connected to the rear tile of the pump above it. The rear tile is where power is applied, either by machine or by dwarf. The front tile is where power is utilized, and where it is transferred from. Only the front tile can transfer power. Only the rear tile can accept power. So, yes, both tiles are utilized in transferring power, the front is the power source, the back is the power receptor. <small>– [[template:unsigned|unsigned]] comment by [[User:GhostDwemer|GhostDwemer]]</small> | :: You sure about that?

::: Yes, I'm sure about that. That picture doesn't say whether the power is being supplied to the bottom pump, and fed upwards, or the top pump, and fed downwards. It'll work either way. The DWR works best if you take power out from above the pump - it doesn't matter whether you put the gear/axle above the dark tile, or the light tile. Test it yourself - build a DWR, then build a vertical axle above one tile and a gear above the other. They'll both get power - and they can't transfer power directly to each other. --[[User:DeMatt|DeMatt]] 23:04, 3 November 2010 (UTC) | ::: Yes, I'm sure about that.
