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

Windmill Sails can be dyed is similar fashion to 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:

  1. Amount of sails, with minimum being 2. It effects final stress capacity supported by the windmill.
  2. 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.
  3. The biome, with ocean biomes giving x1.3 and beaches and mountains x1.2 boost to both speed and stress capacity.
  4. 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 Steel Plates, Sticks and any color of wool.
