	The wind strength, measured in MCW, is affected by 3 factors: Height, Weather, and ~~Chance~~. ~~The higher up in the world you are, the higher the~~ wind ~~level~~. Below y = 64, there is never enough wind ~~to be used~~, and the generator will not ~~function~~ at all. Weather ~~will~~ also give boosts; Rainy weather will yield a 20% boost ~~to normal wind levels, and stormy~~ weather will yield a 50% boost. The ~~final factor of chance makes~~ the wind ~~strength vary randomly, however there is a limited range of variation~~.		The wind strength, measured in MCW, is affected by 3 factors: Height, Weather, and a Random Factor.

			Height is a main factor of wind strength.
			Below y = 64, there is never enough wind, and the generator will not create EU at all.
			Wind is strongest at around y = 160.
			There is very little wind at y=255, hence no point attempting to run a wind turbine that high.

			Weather also give boosts.
			Rainy weather will yield a 25% boost.
			Stormy weather will yield a 50% boost.

			At every update, the wind direction may change +18 degree or -18 degree or not change. The three choices have same probabilities.
			There's no evidence that the wind direction will affect EU generation.

	The easiest way to check the current wind level in an area is by using a {{Gin\|Windmeter}}.		The easiest way to check the current wind level in an area is by using a {{Gin\|Windmeter}}.
