Cave Bees

Description
The mod adds big bees to the caverns. If they're tamed, they can be milked for honey and royal jelly, which are more valuable than the usual bee equivalents. Make sure they have a pasture, since they're grazers.

Queens are long lived, but very rare, drones are war trainable, just cause and the workers are very plentiful, but short lived.

Graphics are still a work in progress, sorry, not an artist.

To make them available at embark, get this as well: https://steamhost.cn/steamcommunity_com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=2921408481

You don't need anything extra for this to work, it's not normal mead, but it's another job at the still, it's called "make cave mead". It's possible that one of your other mods is messing with the jobs, but the way this mod works, so as long as your other mods don't delete files, loading this mod last should work.

Are you saying there's a specific piece of UX I need to locate (which is not the normal "make mead" reaction at the still) to use this honey for mead?

Or are you saying there needs to be a further change to the raws (e.g. installing "DLE - Make Mead Fix" mod) to make this honey usable for mead?

Went and checked, it works fine for me, so it's probably a mod conflict.
Probably worth saying though that this is a different product from the regular mead (should be more valuable), so if you're just making mead in general it's not going to include this honey. The vanilla mead reaction asks for honey bee honey specifically, for some reason.
The other thing you could try is loading this mod last, since it's possible that some other mod is overwriting something, but idk what you have or what other conflicts that might cause.

It could be a conflict with another mod (since I use many), but I seem to be unable to turn their honey into mead

Hey Friend not sure if you are still active with this mod but was just wondering how i can make a patch or a duplicate personal version of this mod with embarkable cave bees?

Their mead is more valuable than the regular, as the description says.

can you make mead that is more valuable than regular mead?
