Posted April 9, 2013 Sometimes you think of things while you are doing something very tedious and for me it came down to this.Why don't we have windmills?we have a wind mechanic, we have sails, we have grindstones, we have flour, and rye, and many windmill orientated goods...and yet no windmills....I just don't get it.Let me know what you think of windmills or any other thoughts while crafting.....Feel free to make this a blather thread about general thoughts on wurm heh Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted April 9, 2013 (edited) windmills and such have been suggested over a few hundred times over the years , and i think this is not the forum section to discuss about it Edited April 9, 2013 by Elwood2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted April 9, 2013 This is more a, what do you think about when your crafting thread then just windmills hehwindmills and such have been suggested over a few hundred times over the years , and i think this is not the forum section to discuss about it I know, but this is more a what are you thinking when your crafting, idea's, thoughts, just general wurmy thoughts while playing heh Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted April 9, 2013 I think of a ball and chain and making something else than a pendulum from it... some iron shackle to clasp around the ankle of another player to do all the tedious blacksmithing for me. But honestly, windmills is something that came to my mind, too.It would be fantastic if the geography of Wurm had rivers and streams. It could form natural barriers to escape some monsters, water sources further inland, and would help to define the continents more than now. Then we could have Watermills, too. A crafting bench or table would be very decorative... it could work as a container for crafting tools and materials. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Posted April 9, 2013 I also think of windmills when I craft, and how stupid and game breaking windmills would be. At the same time I also feel sick just to think about the people who think that windmills would be a good addition to the game, automated unatended crafting and such.I also think about Elen, and why he is a dude with a girls name..." dude, why do you have to use my mothers name?", that is what I think. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Windmills shouldn't have any use to prevent automatic crafting, or at least, give no skillgain so that it's a waste of time to do and just for fun Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Posted April 9, 2013 I was honestly thinking it would only do mortar, flour, and anything you need grinded, not really a sawmill utility, but eh it could do it all really, but just kill quality to hell lol Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted April 9, 2013 I always think to myself something along these lines (when I can stay awake):"Oh my god this is so boring why do I keep logging in this is so boring I'm falling asleep why do I keep logging in"And yet, here I am, every day, doing the same thing.

Posted April 9, 2013 I never imagine having something make items automatically :/Like for a windmill, that would grind flour I would imagine? lolAutomation of that sort shouldn't be in Wurm I believe 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
