Vertical Water Wheels - spin from falling water
It would be nice to have waterwheels work in the below configuration, particularly for high height maps, and just to have a bit of variation. It would also be nice to have a more expensive version that can be built on top of should this come, to allow for water wheels within more of a vertical town.

Eshcatalogic-NinjaOver-shot water-wheel should be tier 2 water-wheel as they tend to be more efficient at a cost of greater difficulty to setup.

NerdyBurner MergedA stackable thing say 2x3 or 2x4 or multiple sizes would be great, that can be stacked vertically to capture power from an active waterfall at some reasonable rate of exchange and research cost.
In addition, vertically oriented power shafts to move power directly up or down, stackable -

Andrew TibbettsI was surprised to discover that wheels built at the bottom of a rather tall levee/dam/floodgate produced half the power of wheels in a bottle-necked river. Maybe just a quick tweak to up-power wheels in this situation.

Gin Fuyou Admin@ Andrew Tibbetts, water simulation, even not so sophisticated as in Timberborn, is still not a trivial thing for quick fixes. It will be gradually changed without doubt, so stay tuned.

anonymous MergedAdd the traditional Whaterwheel as energy producing facility (could use the already existing water management like the floodgate): Whater enters above, releases potential energy, could be combined with others of the same type for more efficency.

airoow Mergedso sad that we cannot earn energy from waterfall right now.

Kwangho Kim MergedSeems like Water wheel only works for flowing water, not falling down. hope this water power can be updated to the game, so that people can actually think and build variety ways to create ground situation, and location for villages.
