straight electrical cable, etc? answered

[Patches]

Where are these cables to hook the lights up. I can't find them anywhere. I've been playing ARK:SE and have 3 Castles on different Islands with full electrical operations. So I know how to hook them up.

I have a Windmill up from Bob's whatever. Do I even need wires in this version? I haven't built a Generator yet or Turbine.

so, what's up?
thanks

Edit: I did put a stand up light up and it's asking for a Battery?

[Oli De Mase]

u dont need wires just turn everything on

[Saraphine]

Is it a light from the bobs tall tales dlc?
Battery might be something you craft from one of the new thingys in the dlc.

Windmill doesnt provide power does it ?

[Saraphine]

If there's wind the windmill should provide power.

I set the Windmill up thinking it'd be the same as the Turbine. It must not be, one's out of Bob's and the other just a light from the Fab Machine. I'm on an oil run at the moment. What I get back I'mm make a Generator and see what happens.

thanks, I hope you don't need the cables this time.

Nope, you don't need any cables. I made a Generator and gased her up. The lights clicked on. Solved

Now I'll go find out what the Windmill powers if anything. I have 4 oil lamps from Bob's that runs on gas. We'll see if they'll light up now.

thanks

Edit: And the Generator is quiet when running. And the Generator also lights up Bob's large oil lamps.

Windmills only provide electricity on maps with wind. Hint: Scorched Earth.
