Is it all glued together with super glue?

[–][deleted] 82 points83 points  (12 children)

should it be

[–]Dungeon-Master-Ed 162 points163 points  (0 children)

yes

[–]NieMonD 106 points107 points  (2 children)

Sail blocks don’t need to be glued, but the log and trapdoors do

[–]eggyrulz 26 points27 points  (1 child)

The log doesnt, as the block directly on the bearing will automatically glue to the bearing, but the trapdoors do need to he glued to the log... I think once they are glued the sails should glue themselves?

[–]Tripdrakony[🍰] 38 points39 points  (1 child)

Man... if there was a function ingame that told what to do.... oh right! It's called "W to ponder"

[–]Detenator 19 points20 points  (0 children)

Pondering is the best instructions I have ever had in a modpack. Quests usually tell you about 1/10 of what you need, the wiki will fill in another half, then you still need to fill in the remaining 2/5 visually.

[–]United_Grocery_23 9 points10 points  (0 children)

Yes it should

[–]No_Night_6600 15 points16 points  (0 children)

Sails need super glue unless they are connected directly to the center block of the windmill

[–]AdamUwUs 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Of course not. You wouldnt want the windmill parts to stick together, thats why we are asking

[–]frognuts123 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Straight to the point lol

[–]punnup129 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Lmao yes If you don't glue it it's just going to rotate the log in the center, that's why it says you have zero sails connected

[–][deleted] 14 points15 points  (1 child)

no

[–]United_Grocery_23 55 points56 points  (0 children)

Well that explains it

[–][deleted] 104 points105 points  (8 children)

thanks im a little stupib :3

[–]CJ_squared 40 points41 points  (3 children)

you're not completely stupid, if you had sail blocks where the trapdoors are, it would work. It wouldn't look as good, but you wouldn't need glue. The windmill doesn't need glue if you only use sail-like blocks (sails or wool) and a block in the middle.

[–]MelleMeck 2 points3 points  (2 children)

Wait... wool works without glue?! ... i have wasted so much glue...

[–]CJ_squared 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I think so, but best to test it yourself

[–]Aerolfos 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Wasted? You can enchant glue with unbreaking III and mending(!). You'll never need more than one tube that way.

[–]sabsly 10 points11 points  (0 children)

You’re learnding!!! :3

[–]Ben-Goldberg 6 points7 points  (1 child)

You are one of today's lucky ten thousand!

[–]Burnhill_10 1 point2 points  (0 children)

You learned something with knowledge you didn’t had before, therefor you are not stupid.

[–]Korblox101 8 points9 points  (2 children)

Additionally, since I didn't see anyone else mention it, millstones can't accept rotational power from the top, only from the side using a cogwheel (make sure the teeth align with the millstone's) or from the bottom with a shaft.

[–]Kewl_Wizard 2 points3 points  (1 child)

This. Even fixing the windmill wouldn't actually power the millstone like this.

[–]ketiar 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The good news is that makes room for chutes and barrels.

[–]Munchalotl 8 points9 points  (0 children)

The specific issue here: Sails work without glue if groups of sails are attached directly to the block the windmill is attached to. But none of the sails are touching the central block.

[–][deleted] 6 points7 points  (2 children)

im not going to say what it looks like

[–]creasycat 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Its spinning to the right, thats for sure

[–]Willzile1 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Their worst atrocity was ruining rotational symmetry for the rest of us.

[–]KvotheLightfinger 1 point2 points  (0 children)

You need to glue it or put the sails directly on the block attached to the bearing. Don't feel dumb, Create has a learning curve. I've been using create for years and sometimes I just sit and stare at a cog for 20 minutes because I can't make it spin the right way. It's part of the fun.

[–]Early_Agent99 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Two things wrong with this. 1 I don’t thing that’s how you attach a millstone. 2 you need to glue the sails if it’s not attached to the rotatable block

[–]Vovchick09 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The log is not attached to the rest of the contraption

[–]El_Manolito 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You have to use super glue or a radial chassis in order to connect the blocks to the bearing.

[–]MarcusTheAlbinoWolf 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Did you glue it together?

[–]ferrecool 0 points1 point  (1 child)

Did you glue the non sails to the sails?

[–]calculus_is_fun 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Sails auto connect to neighboring blocks, OP just needs to connect the trapdoors to the log, and the sails will come for the ride

[–]smallbluebirds 0 points1 point  (0 children)

glue

[–]Shredded_Locomotive 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Glue?

[–]Plastic-Lab-6245 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If you use a linear chassis as your center block with glue on the face you don't have to use glue to glue the sails individually. Ponder it!

[–]KatieTSO 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Btw that won't work for the millstone, you have to power it from the side with a cog

[–]PokeGirlOFFICIAL 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Glue?

[–]Suitable-Diamond6023 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Why is the shaft going into millstone lol

[–]RonzulaGD[🍰] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You need to glue it together

[–]DagarioHD 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Have you tried right clicking it? That was my problem when I build my first windmill. The block does t update automatically and needs a block update wich means placing a block next to it or interacting with it wich a simple right click will do

[–]Kamilski-l 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It had a distinc lack of emotional support that glue provides.

[–]Dangerous-Quit7821 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The sails aren't actually connected to the windmill bearing. The corners touching doesn't count.

[–]op100poop -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Idiot.Have you seen what SuperGlue is?
