Windmill
Uses wind to produce mechanical power. Requires clear space for 10 blocks in front of the blades for full power generation. Gains a small output boost when placed at higher elevations.
Notes
The Windmill is a large world object requiring a 7x7x2 footprint, and must have a clear 6-block path for its blades in the direction it faces to generate its rated output of 105 J/s of mechanical power. For optimal performance, it needs unobstructed airspace in front of the blades for 10 meters, and being placed at higher elevations provides a small power bonus. As a tier of power generation that produces no pollution, it serves as a clean but site-dependent early-to-mid-game alternative to combustion engines, and its mechanical output can be used directly or converted to electricity via compatible generators.
