Windmills could we get them for faster flour production?

You'd just throw seeds in, put barrel there where the flours flow to. Then it will start turning to flour depending how much theres wind.

I wouldn't mind, but is there really a need for it? Grinding is pretty fast as it is, no?

[Granger]

Grinding sounds like grind, so a building that works on the side would feel less grindy.
Also it could have quality, compared to a quern.

Shubla are you sick man? Don't you mean instead a build that makes flower grinding slower? You should get checked out.

[Granger]

In case the building works on its own i would have no problem letting it do the work while i do something else.

[Necroliter]

Well, with current incredible amount of Barley required for good baking food i wouldn`t mind to have building that can mill my buckets of seeds while i do something else. Cause right now it takes 10+ grinds on grindstone to make 1 oven of food.

You know you want a windmill or six in your town.

Buildings that are big and harder to produce but help automate tedious tasks, or automate them would be nice. It'd be a nice trade off. Instead of a quern that you can carry you've got this big building, but you can fill its hopper with grain and let it work while you do other things.

In the same vein, a lumber yard would also be nice. They've been around since roman times, and of course the trade off would be making planks and blocks faster for in town, but not being able to take the whole set up with you in the field.

I'm sure there's other processes that could also benefit. Looms and spinning wheels? Water wells that fill barrels up that are put into it? (Regular wells probably already do this, but you get my point.)

Maybe windmill could give more flour from barleys? There would be less waste. In current animation half of flour just drips all over.

+1 idea - also we need goats... I dunno why but we do
