How to Use a Windmill

Windmill mainly operate by using wind speed to process the items put into it. Currently the only item than can be placed in a Windmill is Barley, which turns to Barley Flour after the process.

The processing speed of the Windmill entirely depends on the wind speed. This makes storms very valuable if you want to focus on making your Windmill faster.

But, since the wind speed is random and storms do not appear all the time, it is recommended that you build multiple Windmills if you want to mass produce an item made from the Windmill.
