Laggy or not (Client v1.95 | MC1.2.5)

	I'm using multiple windmills on a single tin wire, building above level 127 - it appears this can occasionally result in voltage values above 4 EV/t, burning out tin wires under high loads. I would guess that going above level 128 requires glass fiber cables. Can anyone confirm this result? --[[User:TravisTgr\|TravisTgr]] 23:07, 9 April 2012 (CEST)		I'm using multiple windmills on a single tin wire, building above level 127 - it appears this can occasionally result in voltage values above 4 EV/t, burning out tin wires under high loads.

	I just build a small wind farm at height 250, with tons of obstructions, so they dont break, and the moment I started using generated energy, game started lagging kinda bad. It might not have anything to do with these wind mills, as I play on kinda laggy server, but it made me realize. How often do wind mills detect obstructions, and how "laggy" does that make them? They have to detect obstructions in quite large area, so is it possible to make server very laggy just by building 16 wind mills, each having over 100 obstructions? And if not, do obstructions increase computing requirements for wind mills?

	It seems that some "extra large" windmills can be made by placing multiple windmills at extreme altitudes. Each block reduces the effective elevation, until the cluster can operate without breaking. Has anyone figured out good design layouts yet?		It seems that some "extra large" windmills can be made by placing multiple windmills at extreme altitudes.

			== Power Calculations ==

			Is the max safety distance of 80 based on an old build? Running the calculations listed lower down, I am getting a maximum safe height of 149, well over the max default height of the world.
