Generates 40, 20, or 0 power, depending on wind level

A windmill is a Template:L that provides Template:L via wind on the surface of a fortress map. The power produced by each windmill depends on your fortress location. Windmills generate power from their central tile, which can power devices like Template:L and Template:L directly underneath that tile through the floor without channeling. They only have this effect if the windmill is built first, and whatever it's powering second; this means that the device will start operating immediately once you build it - which can be hazardous to your dwarves.

As with other machines, windmills freeze if the floor under them is natural ice.

For a basic overview of how the different machine parts work and work together, see Template:L.
