I was building a windmill thinking it would be the fastest for grinding bonemeal but friend told me it doesn't work.... is that intended? It seems like it is just an oversight by the devs, since the other grinders process all the same materials the same way - windmill should too.

Nope, windmill is entirely meant for grain. We intend to add more uses for grinding structures in the future so none of them are really quite 'finished'.

okie, that makes me sad but thanks for the official comment!

It is exciting though to see what we can do with windmills in the future... im afraid though that the placement of existing windmills will by unworkable with the new mechanic (i.e. need space for a machinery/structure beside the windmill in order to use the power)

They are called nice things, friend. And we can't have nice things around here.

And dedicated alts for grinding bonemeal out of fishbones if you have a lot of traps.
