The Windmill is a machine that provides power via wind on the surface of a fortress map.

Currently, the Windmill provides 40 units of power and requires 4 pieces of wood.


Getting Power Out Of A Windmill

To get some useful power out of a windmill:

  1. Place the mill
  2. Excavate a path under it to the center of its base. (1 z-level down)
  3. add either a vertical axle or gear assembly there, which will have power.
