For Windmill, see Windmill.


The Large Windmill icon.png Large Windmill is a Buildings icon.png building unique to Folktails icon.png Folktails that generates a random amount of Power icon.png Power depending on the current wind conditions.

Power generation ranges from 0 to 300 hp Horsepower icon.png. Large Windmills do not generate power if the wind strength is less than 20% (which is 10% lower than the minimum wind strength required for the Windmill).

Windmills have an output at the base for running either Power Shafts or connecting directly to buildings. They can also be "daisy chained" together to increase total hp Horsepower icon.png output.

Windmills do not work when Flooded Building icon.png flooded. The location and height of windmills does not affect their Power icon.png Power output.

Notes

  • The dimensions are only (3x3) tiles at a height of (3) to (5). At heights (1) and (2), the dimensions are only (1x1) tile where the base is.
  • Average Power output is 144 hp.
  • Windmills turn to face the direction of the wind. This means they require more space than they physically take up.
  • Windmills output power from all four directions at the base. They can also output power from below.
  • The wind strength can be measured using a Wind Gauge icon.png Wind Gauge.
  • The wind strength and direction is uniform across the entire map. The strength and speed is determined randomly, and cannot be affected by the player.
