Could you add bumble bees to this mod? They could make crops grow faster and could be kept as pets.

Bumble bees sound like a good idea. I'm a bit skeptical about keeping them as pets...
Water and lava can form a fountain (in combination with the pipeworks mod? Or something specific to Mauvebics server?) - maybe bees could as well? Only that the "dots" won't be waterdrops but bees.
Lettings crops grow faster also sounds very good as well.

I also like the idea to make a seperate candle mod.
I don't know if there's a way to use facedir and wallmounted at the same time, but I'd love to see Wild Bee Hives facing different directions.
This would help resolve that issue https://github.com/minetest/minetest/pull/641
or can it be done differently?
I'm not sure how to combine bees and farming mod.
I was thinking that yellow jackets would be more appropriate for that role, due to the fact that they can sting more than once and... well...Josh wrote:Maybe the bees could sting you.
If you dont get an adrenaline syringe, you die from the sting.

Now that's what I call a vicious insect that wants to kill.

This is awesome. I finally got a queen bee, just had to harvest enough hives!

This is a great idea! I keep bees IRL and was just curious if someone had made a mod for it. Low and behold!
I look forward to testing it out.
Hope we get to harvest honey out of this! NOM!
Thanks!

A lot, probably 10. But it is random. So sometimes I go for a dry spell, and other times it is quicker.cptncatholic wrote:I'm still having a hard time getting a queen bee.

I have good suggestion for your mod, you could the whole bee breeding system with different races of bees, similar to forestry mod *wink*. You could start with small and improve on that, kind of like the early version of forestry. Hope you consider my suggestion, cause forestry was one of my favorite mods.

I love this mod, but the wild beehives seemed to jump out at you in the game. I created a new more natural texture for the beehive. I use it to replace the side, bottom, and front textures.

Some things to add...
BeeKeeper head gear: traditionally a hood with netting to prevent bees stinging the face.
Game use: reduces damage when harvesting from tamed bees or gather from wild hives.
Recipe: String is some pattern
Smoker: tradition a can full of smoldering burlap or anything else that produces smoke which is blown at the hive to settle it down.
Game use: Reduces the chance of damage while harvesting hives and or increases the chances of getting a queen bee or whole hive. Must be used on a hive if you try to move it.
Suggested recipe: string or yarn with torch, maybe metal for can casing. Limited number of uses like tools.
What else I like to see? Chances if you put a hive near or have an apple orchard that a queen bee will move into the hive.
ie. test to see if a player made hive is within a certain distance.

I recommend changing the selection box for the bee swarms to be {0,0,0,0,0,0} so that is it not selectable at all (i.e. truly invisible).

Experiment was an resounding success. Wild hives will appear in apple trees if you plant flowers all around....
but there is a distance which competing wild hives will spawn near each other. I have two hives on trees diagonal from each other and the bee nests are on the furthest it can get on the side of the apple tree as it can get.
And I have a second hive started but not by the planned treesbut by one outside the control area.

enough flowers and plants in range of the bees? Look at the pictures in the first post to get an idea. Honey might not be produced if the mapchunk is not loaded so visit often.freejack wrote:I have 2 hives in a garden and neither are producing honey......Both have queen bees....

This mod has a bee model in it, Bas080. It might be useful to you (and I would just love to have a pet male carpenter bee.)
