Disconnected gears[edit]

As far as I can tell, windmills and waterwheels supported solely by a gear assembly do NOT deconstruct when the gear assemblies are disabled. I've hung a waterwheel off of a gear assembly, built a windmill supported from below by a gear assembly, and hung vertical axles from a gear assembly. This applies to 47.05 and 50.05.

Looks like you can't construct machinery to be suspended from a disabled gear assembly, but disabling it after construction does not cause it to deconstruct. Qeveren (talk) 20:10, 3 February 2023 (UTC)
Looks like machines hanging from disconnected gears do deconstruct, but only on map load or when another machine component is forced to update by being deconstructed. Qeveren (talk) 02:21, 8 February 2023 (UTC)
