?Water wheels?
« on: July 05, 2008, 11:24:06 pm »
I'm having a problem getting my water wheels running, they're on top of water from the ocean and connected to an axle, am I missing something?

Yes they are a bunch of drunken unstable retards, but they're MY drunken unstable retards, and I will take care of them.

The ocean probably doesn't have any flow; I guess waves don't count.

It's not too hard to set up a perpetual motion machine without relying on natural water for anything except getting the system filled. The wiki has details.
