But ONLY for the axles, right? The pumps will just transmit power amongst themselves?

The supports don't seem to elevate it to a higher z-level.

Fffffffff.

Edit: So I decided to construct water wheels instead of windmills. When I try to construct them, however, it seems I can't construct them on water. Which seems like an oversight. Please advice.

Waterwheels need an adjacent axle, gearbox, or pump to be supported. Build a horizontal axle first then the waterwheel.

Life (in dwarf fortress) is a cocophany of flavours, each more succulent than the last - why not sample them all?!

So I made a garbage chute, cool. Excepted when I linked the hatch of the chute to a pressure plate, and a dwarf stepped on it, nothing happened. I'm also a little perplexed by the minimum weight selection.

EDIT: Second question. It is summer of the first year and two Giant Desert Scorpions have shown up, and it looks like they're making a beeline for my dwarves. I have one spear dwarf with no armor. Am I dead or am I dead?

If pumps are connected directly to each other, no.

Exported wealth is based on trading I believe.
