This will give them a happier life, and it takes no time at all. Therefore, players should get out of bed, head to the barn on the right, and herd the animals outside.

The time that it takes to process an item at the windmill will depend on how strong the wind is that day. However, this isn't the only factor that gamers should take into consideration when they're trying to decide which recipes they want to make at the windmill. Players need to make note of how many items they need but also of when they'll need them.

The windmill can work on turning 50 wood into 10 lumber but this will take over a day, as process time accumulates. However, if they program it to simultaneously work on multiple, smaller orders for the recipe, it will finish them in no time - a mere five hours per 5 wood. The downside here is that gamers won't be able to work on as many recipes at once, but it is a nice way to get processed materials faster.

Additionally, players should put in batches that will take longer to process before going to bed. This way, they can start the faster processes while they're active during the day.
