}}Windmill is a rotational block added by [[Mod:PolyFactory|PolyFactory]]. It can ~~be placed in any direction, similar to~~ a ~~dropper. When connected and powered with rotational force~~, it ~~will push any entity (including~~ the ~~player) in direction it's facing with force proportional~~ to ~~distance~~ from ~~the fan and the speed it's rotating~~. By using the [[PolyFactory:Wrench|Wrench]], it can be rotated ~~or set~~ to ~~"reverse" mode~~, ~~which makes~~ it ~~pull entities instead~~.

}}Windmill is a rotational source block added by [[Mod:PolyFactory|PolyFactory]]. You can place it by using a Windmill Sail item on an [[PolyFactory:Axle|Axle]], converting it to the Windmill block. It can only connect to other blocks from a single direction. By using the [[PolyFactory:Wrench|Wrench]], it can be rotated.

Windmill Sails can be dyed is similar fashion to [[Minecraft:Leather Armor|Leather Armor]] and mixed together in any pattern within the Windmill block.

=== Rotational power generation ===

Main purpose of the Windmill is to generate rotational force that can be used by other machines. The amount of it depends on multiple factors, such as:

# Amount of sails, with minimum being 2. It effects final stress capacity supported by the windmill.

# Height it is placed on (depending on dimention). It needs to be at least 5 blocks above the ground in Overworld to start rotating, through being higher gives better results. In The Nether, it needs to be around y=64. In The End dimension position doesn't matter. It effects final speed and stress capacity.

# The biome, with ocean biomes giving x1.3 and beaches and mountains x1.2 boost to both speed and stress capacity.

# Whatever it is raining, giving additional x1.1 boost to speed and stress capacity.

You can connect multiple windmills in paralel to increase total stress capacity available.

=== Obtaining ===

It can be crafted using [[PolyFactory:Steel|Steel Plate]], [[~~PolyFactory~~:~~Axle~~|~~Axle]], [[minecraft:Iron Ingot|Iron Ingot~~]] and [[~~minecraft~~:~~Iron Bars~~|~~Iron Bars~~]].

It can be crafted using [[PolyFactory:Steel|Steel Plate]]<nowiki/>s, [[Minecraft:Stick|Stick]]<nowiki/>s and [[Minecraft:Wool|any color of wool]].
