A windmill generates Rotational Force. It is composed of a Windmill Bearing (or Mechanical Bearing in pre 0.3 versions) and "Sail-like blocks". Sail-like blocks include Windmill Sails, Sail Frames, and Wool blocks. Due to the easy access to its components, the windmill along with the Water Wheel are the earliest automatic power generators in the game.
Usage
A windmill is created by attaching any block to the front of the Windmill Bearing to act as a hub, then attaching multiple sail blocks to the hub bock. The Windmill Bearing comes with glue already on the face to which the hub block attaches. Additional blocks maybe attached with Super Glue. The additional blocks are decorative only. Only the sail blocks generate power.
Sail blocks include Windmill Sails, Sail Frames, and Wool blocks. A minimum of eight sails are required. Sails will automatically connect to each other and to blocks that have already been attached. The sails can be placed in any configuration; the shape does not matter.
Right-click the Windmill Bearing anywhere but the center with an empty hand to start the windmill. To stop it, right-click on the block with an empty hand again. To change the spin direction, right-click and hold on the center of the bearing where a circular arrow appears. Hold down the right mouse key and either scroll the wheel or move the mouse left and right to select the direction.
