More Realistic Beehives

Description
For those who don't know:
In nature, when a bee colony grows too large, or when the hive has two queen bees that won't fight to the death, the colony will divide in half and half of the bees will accompany the leaving queen to form a new hive some place nearby.

What that means to this mod:
When a hive grows old enough, it's bees will work together to form a new beehive somewhere close by. How "old" a hive is depends on when and for how long this mod is enabled. Using the default settings, beehives will start dividing every 60 days AFTER you enable this mod. So don't worry about being overwhelmed with beehives. You can also adjust the division times in the configuration menu. In a nutshell, this makes honeycomb a renewable resource.

Recent Changes:
-Fixed beeboxes not graphically updating upon loading a save.
-Killer Bee Hives can now also divide, optional, off by default.
-Bee Boxes can now also create beehives, optional, off by default.

After playing in a SW world for ~200 days and jumping over to RoG with Seaworthy, there were a few groups of several dozen beehives clustered together.

is this shipwrecked compatible?

Figured out that bee boxes when you set them to be able to divide, if you get stung by a bee from the beebox, which due to the way the mod works, it spawns killer bees, and if you get stung by 1 of the killer bees; your game crashes. Please fix!

Found a glitch, every time I get stung by a bee from a bee box, I crash.

I'm late as all hell for the discussion, but it says it on the mod, 60 days by default

What exactly are the Division frequencies? Like 1 day, 2 days 3 weeks?

Great mod. I have the frequency set to "Less" and during new gameplay the beehives started to divide in less than 20 days. Do I need to turn the mod off and on (reset) when creating new game?
