mechanical bearing don't want to turn on minecraft 1.14.4 server, they can generate power but don't generate rotation

Are you aware that you need to right click the bearing (with an empty hand) to update it if you powered it before attaching any blocks? It works fine on my server (latest version, no other mods).

@Tera579 what mods are you using on your server

To generate rotation using wool, the bearing needs to be powered with redstone.
You do not need a bearing for water wheels.

i am having the same issue he is having and i have powered the bearing and the windmill will not turn.
and if i attach a motor to the bearing to turn the windmill it will turn 180 degrees or so and then stop
there must be some incompatibility with another mod. it is only happening on servers

Please verify if this is still an issue in 0.2.3

ok i figured out what mod was breaking the windmills for me anyway. it was immersive portals 0.15

when i updated to create 0.2.3 it is still happening the windmill will not turn. i am running a forge 28.2.6 server with 100ish other mods i am going to try and remove them one by one to find out what mod it is. if you want i can give a mod list

I know the immersive portals dev wanted to work towards some create compat. Plus windmills are now moved to the windmill bearing, so until this is seen breaking in .3 with windmill bearings and a more up to date IP version, i'll close this issue
