Windmill Room category --> Outdoors
So, as a Dutch and new player, I was very excited to build my first windmill. Assuming windmills go outside of buildings I placed it on a wall of a building that needed mechanical power. So disappointed I lost the decorative bonusses of my "outdoor" zone due to it being overwritten due to the windmill being "industrial".
I don't know if it matters for anything else as the newbie I am, but is it possible to reconsider the room category for windmills to become "outdoor" ?

Hello Aminity, thanks for your suggestion. The behaviour you mentioned is working as intended and we have no current plans to change it. The outdoor room bonus is additional to all other bonuses in the game and intended to be granted for players that separate their industrial operations from their housing residence, beautifying the latter in the process. You are able to get the outdoor bonus by simply splitting your deeds into two separate ones, one for industrial operations and the other for sole housing. This is also possible at two completely different places on the map.
