It easy to see from the picture what I am getting on about wind turbines should not work if there blades overlap

I believe the mod author was going for the realism of space when designing the Turbines. I doubt he will change their behavior in this regard.

It easy to see from the picture what I am getting on about wind turbines work just even if the blades over lap

@mercsniper I think you misunderstood. The wind turbines at present work close together. The picture that Dijkstra1 posted shows them working like that. They should be a little more realistic and not work if directly adjacent to another wind turbine.

I am thinking that a 5 block radius around the wind turbines would be a little more realistic. It could probably be implemented with a simple check when placing the wind turbine.

To avoid confusion, the title should be changed to "Wind turbines should not work too close together".

Dijkstra1-zz commented 8 years ago

Yes I will change the title I must missed a word out.

I had a check for this earlier, but there's really no way to avoid this without doing environment checks which are pretty CPU intensive. I'm happy with the current functionality.
