Bees Reborn

Description
IMPORTANT INFORMATION
(Read this if you need help getting started)​
Apiaries do not function if no flowers are near them. (80 block range.) On most grassy planets, you'll automatically be in range of some.

More Flowers = More power. (Faster production.)
More Drones = More power. (Faster production.)
When breeding, queens do not spawn in the apiary. They fly out. You need to catch them with the bug net.
Many items are gained through placing combs in a centrifuge.
Honey can be jarred by placing the Industrial Centrifuge next to the Honey Jarring Machine. Place empty jars in the Jarring Machine, and combs in the centrifuge. The centrifuge will pump the honey over. There is no drawback to using these machines, only benefits.
Radioactive Bees require a uranium frame to be bred.
Three types of bees will sting. The bee suit prevents the damage.
Honey related consumables heal separately from bandages. They heal very slowly but last a while, perfect for that long mission.

ABOUT BEES REBORN

Bees Reborn is a functional remake for Starbound 1.4.1. (...at least it's always worked for me xD) Just like StarBooze Reborn, it was originally intended for personal use and with friends. And now I’m sharing it with you. The mod remains the same as the last version from eleven years ago, and that’s how it will stay—first, because it’s not open-source, and second, because my goal is simply to provide a playable version that I believe the Starbound community has needed for years.

Only three things have been added: Bee Collection / IFD_statuseffects.config / xrc_fertilizer.config

I don’t think there's any need to remove them or create an addon for that. Since I don’t know what the future holds for the mod—and as I mentioned, it’s not open-source but rather a "Reborn" version—it could be reported or removed... I honestly don’t know how all that works. The internet is full of both crazy and sad people...

Let me repeat: my only intention is to provide a working version of the mod here. I have no intention of violating any patents, intellectual property rights, etc. — okay?

Because of that, I’ll only be addressing bugs if they happen.
Nothing else will be added to the mod.
All I ask is that those who always wanted to play or test this mod: subscribe and keep a copy of it updated. It took me a long time to remake it, and it was amazing to play it with friends. I hope you feel the same, or even better than I did.

And since I don’t know what the future of the mod holds... just subscribe, and thank you!

If you encounter any issues, please let me know. As I said, the mod had no errors, but we used it in a fully customized modpack, okay?

As for the original author: I’ve included a link to the original mod and the author’s name.
And if he ever contacts me: thank you so much — and come get your child! lol

Note: Incompatible for Frackin Universe, as it is already added!!

gotcha, thanks!

Good evening @zaechery. Sorry for the delay in responding. I did the tests, reviewed the code and it is working normally. The first look... I did a basic test and without success... I looked at the code again and... yes there was a typing error. Sorry again... In this case the error was in the starbooze reborn mod. Because meaddrone and meadqueen only exist there. I will release a patch to fix it with the new starbooze update. Ok?
zaechery 19 Jun @ 9:21am 
so i'm a little confused, I made an apiary, i have mead queens, mead drones and some basic frames in the input slots, and i have planted a bunch of blue flowers around the apiary, but the bees still aren't producing anything, is there something i'm missing?
Hyperdino 8 Jun @ 7:58am 
Oh! Ig I misunderstood what it did then, since I was hoping it boosted the production of queens for things like mutations.
1100Ross  [author] 8 Jun @ 7:17am 
Good morning @Hyperdino. The frame status remains the same as the original mod, I didn't change anything. It boosts a little around 0.15.
Hyperdino 7 Jun @ 11:57am 
Thank you! Also do rubium frames still work as stated on the workshop? Since ingame it just says they boost all production by a bit.
1100Ross  [author] 6 Jun @ 4:35pm 
Good evening @Hyperdino. Sorry about that, there really weren't any beeheads in the treasurepool. But I fixed it. x\
Hyperdino 6 Jun @ 10:25am 
Okay so, I'm only getting bee flower seeds from the plants. I can't find any way to get the bee flower heads.
1100Ross  [author] 5 Jun @ 12:37pm 
Good afternoon @Evergreen. Thank you for reporting the error. It has now been resolved. xD
1100Ross  [author] 5 Jun @ 12:37pm 
Good afternoon @Hyperdino. Sorry for the delay in responding. The beehead item is used to make anti-amite frame, sorry for the confusion.
