Do wasp and larvae work as bird trap bait?

Waited for so long... Let me see how it turned out.

uh why are wasp nests spawning in like every car??? and especially the drivers seat, these mfs be driving ig

fantastic work

So i'm rather confused on how to craft resin. The mod page says you can do something with Pine Cones to extract raw resin, but I can't seem to figure out what I need to do that, nor can I find a recipe for it. Can you clarify the steps you need to take?

Recipes tooltips don't seem to be defined correctly.

Can confirm that the update has fixed it! Thank you :)

Would this mod be compatible with Sapph's cooking/do you plan to?

@OxTailSafu @ezeepeezee I believe I fixed the issue and pushed an update. Please let me know if when adding the items to a fishing pole as bait everything works as desired. I did not realize that there was a specific file defining the baits and linking them to the fishing poles. A new file will be present adding the 5 new lures. Honeybee, Wasp, Honeybee Larvae, Wasp Larvae, Queenbee.

@OxTailSafu Came here to post the same thing. I'm using a makeshift fishing rod and can't put bees or wasps on it.

Just wanted to mention, I cannot use Wasps/Wasp Larvae as bait for my fishing rod. Is anyone else experiencing this issue?

Looking forward to cultivated beehives, will keep an eye on this, especially post multiplayer update.

I suppose I can see it. Here's hoping the item rate can be dropped down some. I did want to also state, is anyone else able to add wasps, honeybees, and larva onto their fishing rod as bait? Despite the tooltip, I don't appear to have an option to use them as bait.

I do like ocasionally finding a wasp nest, though, it makes sense for someone to be keeping one sometimes, when I was a kid I kept a fumigated wasp nest on my shelf

Would it not be possible to limit wasp nests to just foraging? I think it'd be silly for anyone to even have a wasp nest lol.

Definitely would say bookshelves/cabinets as well in a bunch of cars are the most apparent.

@OxTailSafu
I'm still learning how to add items into the loot tables as things work off % and every single container is weighted differently but i'm eager to get the spawns to the right place.

Where would you say you are seeing them the most? Kitchens? Bookshelves?

It's a known issue that i have been working on, i have reduced their spawn % like twice already

@SpaceCowboy
Cultivated beehives are ~

NEED TO LEARN = TRUE

FORAGING LVL 3 Required.

CURRENTLY BUGGED OUT AND PROBABLY WILL NOT WORK!
I have tested it and the code says "Bee Caught" but upon returning nothing has updated, the hive will not use the bait or fill with product. Im not entirely sure why, its a bigger task to tackle and fix because it deals with the 2D textures and tiles which i'm not super good at working with.. if anyone has a solution or recommended fix i'm open ears here, I will get to it soon enough when i can get some extended hours to work on it.

I feel as though Wasp Nests are a tad too common. I've been finding in nearly every other house or so which seems silly given how they're just wasps lol

Can you confirm that the cultivated beehive is recipe locked? Like I will need to find the magazine in the world somewhere?

Hi. Dude, what you're doing is crazy. My family has beehives....
And it's really nice that you made more than just mead, or honey in a jar-- It's genius.
A big handshake for all your hard work, keep it up!

pls add a beekepper suit

Oops! I corrected my mistake, i must have been tired..
I appreciate your help!

@HydeTheBooty98 "hydecobees_waxcoated_items.txt" You didn’t update the Tooltip in this file.XD

The remaining issues have been resolved.
Thank you very much.

I understand.

@我是一个小菜坤 Making Cheese is not a crafting recipe as cheese curds are "cooked" and then transformed into cheese. so they don't have a typical "recipe" if I remember correctly.

I hope to alter / enhance the process in the future to be more realistic and may add additional steps and recipes. But for now as I learn, I simply getting the foundations down for a multitude of things i feel fit into this "bee" mod.

Thanks all for the feedback!

@StinkyCheese I applied and updated the Tooltip_ prefix, Hopefully fixing the issue.

“Bro, sorry—I got it wrong.
Tooltip = Tooltip_HydeCoBees_Beehive,

You need to prepend Tooltip_ at the beginning.

@StinkyCheese I implemented the changes you suggested in an update i just pushed, please let me know if it is correctly done.
@Sir Doggy Jvla I believe i fixed the mod.info file name.

Thanks for the tips!

Same as your other mod:
Your mod.info file part "info" is not fully lowcase which breaks linux users, it's currently "mod.Info"

Hi, the current translation issues are as follows:
❌Tooltip = A wild beehive. Crack it open to harvest honeycombs and bees. ,
✅Tooltip = HydeCoBees_Beehive,
❌ Tooltip_Beehive = "A wild beehive. Crack it open to harvest honeycombs and bees.",
✅ToolTip_HydeCoBees_Beehive = "A wild beehive. Crack it open to harvest honeycombs and bees.",

My fans told me that these two weren't successfully translated: Recipe_UnwaxCheeseSlice and Recipe_UnwaxCheeseWheel. Also, is Mac and Cheese Curds not in the crafting list? I couldn’t find it in the code. You can work on the tooltips later if you're busy — we can wait for about a month.

Okay, thank you for the update. Because your mod has no other introductions — for example, Thief Expansion, which nobody else has introduced — I made one, and the views were quite good. Your Car Company mod gets a lot of views on Douyin, except on Bilibili, because the audiences on these two platforms are different.

@HydeTheBooty98, you wont stop giving banger after banger, huh?

This mod has a great future and just keep getting better and better.

Thank you for the update + fix + new content, keep the awesome work.

Cheers.

Apologies! i have been very busy and unable to play PZ.

But I pushed a small update. let me know if it is fixed.

Also, I added Wasp and Bee Larvae which can be extracted from their respective wild hives.

And a Bee Smoker but it is a work in progress as i haven't had time to fully implement it as primarily a blunt weapon. It cannot be found yet, only crafted. The Recipe for it is ready but need adjustments... do not recommend crafting it yet as its basically just a crap flashlight.

When will it be fixed? My followers on Douyin and Bilibili have been waiting for a long time...

I'm giving you a gift and a thumbs-up to thank you for creating such an excellent mod for Project Zomboid.

Please add Mead Mixture to the text, because I didn't find it inside.

@HydeTheBooty98 Good! Thank you, I will wait for your update!

@我是一个小菜坤 I apologize, i believe it's because I mistakenly had a capital letter in the prefix "ToolTip_" instead of the correct "Tooltip_" i will update the mod soon! hopefully this fixed your issue with the translation. Thanks for the support!

@HydeTheBooty98 Thank you for handling the language file according to my method. However, only Recipes_EN and ItemName_EN were successfully translated, Tooltip_EN was not. I am not sure if it is a technical issue on my end; I only translated and modified the content within the quotation marks without changing any of the external code, but it still failed. This is my first time encountering this issue... If it works out, I will make a video about your mod and upload it to our country's website to let more people know and love your mod.

Yup, probably reverse engineering is the best way. Currently chicken NPCs will be about, will roost in the hutch randomly inbetween 6 AM and 8 PM (20:00 on the clock), after which they will return to the hutch and roost till next day.

@Almahr I added your idea to my list. currently adding stuff to 42 is challenging as most resources refrence build 41 and there arent too many advanced modding guides foryet the things i want to do so im trying to learn as i go by looking at the code and how it works. I will look at the hutches but right now im clueless as to how to create a bee npc. I was thinking like what if i got like the chicken code and reworked it into a bee.. but im not sure how i would even start just yet. some advanced features may come after build 42 is dropped into stable.

I Just Updated the mod you can now
1. Wax-Coat all Fruits, Vegetables, and Meats!!!
2. Fixed drinking mead, (still need to fix the 3D model, its giving me issues)
3. reduced wasp spawns in trunks.
4. Fixed a few recipes that were not removing the input item properly.

Please let me know if anyone notices any issues..
I'll be updating the description to reflect the changes soon.

@yuuno777 It seems in the items code i had mistakenly set it to "closed" by default. so i changed it to be open, and when i tested it i was able to drink it no problemo. I Just pushed an update to fix it, hopefully it will update any you've already created.

After making mead, I have no way to open the bottles. What should I do?

@Almahr, i was about to suggest the same, something like real life, were we can grow our hives and farm honey from our bees, i dont know if is possible, but it would be awesome to have.

Hell, the UI is pretty much already there in B42 -> you have the separate deposit and npc tabs, you have the npc behavior, et cetera.

Think I got a lightbulb moment. What if instead of a trap you made a modified chicken coop / hutch system. A bee (or a swarm of bees) will be their own individual npcs that will fly about during the day and at night / dusk they will return. They (with the Queen) will deposit honey (in the form of honeycomb with which you can extract honey and beeswax) and will require some form of upkeep (protection from wasps, food storage (i.e. honey), affinity for flower-bed tiles).
