Frozen/unfrozen waterwheels don't update when a powertr
« on: December 27, 2007, 11:30:00 pm »

Frozen/unfrozen waterwheels don't update when a powertrain is changed.

I have a powertrain with a waterwheel.  During winter, the waterwheel froze, so I added several windmills and disconnected the gear assembly hooking up to the waterwheel so I could mill during winter.

The status of the disconnected section with windmills on it stayed at "Frozen Elsewhere", even after I physically removed the gear assembly that I'd disconnected.

When spring came and the waterwheels un-froze, the disconnected section with the windmills remained "Frozen Elsewhere" until I hooked the waterwheels back in.

This is probably the same behavior as Bug 392.  I'll get to it at some point.

It might be that your windmills were simply frozen.  I'm playing a glacial map right now and I can't build any windmills because they freeze as soon as I buid them.
