=== Using Beeswax === | === Using Beeswax === | ||
When a Honey is extracted from a Honey Comb using a Liquid Tank, Beeswax will be left in its place. Beeswax is useful to reduce the repair cost of a tool. Dropping the amount of beeswax equal to the repair cost of the tool, along with the tool, onto an anvil then powering a downwards facing piston above the items will reduce the repair cost by 1 level. To find out the repair cost of a tool, try to repair an item in an anvil; the amount of levels required is the repair cost. If it says "Too Expensive" the repair cost is over 40 levels. | When a Honey is extracted from a Honey Comb using a Liquid Tank, Beeswax will be left in its place.

As a result, players must have the Regeneration effect to regain health, and Saturation does not cause massive health bursts. This module adds an early-game method to acquiring short bursts of regeneration, along with mid-game methods to gaining more powerful and longer lasting means of regeneration. | ||

Larvae drop from oak leaves when broken by players. When a leaf is broken, there's a chance that 1-2 larvae will drop; this chance can be increased by using a Fortune tool. The larvae will have their birth time stored, which is important when using them to create bee hives. Larvae will become inactive after one moon cycle. Larvae can also be used as white dye. | Larvae drop from oak leaves when broken by players.

Bee Hives will check for air and flowers in a 7x7 and 3 high area centered at the hive. The number of flowers in the 7x7 area will determine the rate of bee population, and as a result the honey production. Honey production is based on a ratio of flowers to bees and a ratio of roughly 1:1 flowers to air is the optimal layout for sustaining a bee hive. Bees don't live forever, which means sustaining a ratio of about 1:1 flowers to air is important to sustaining a hive. Any small flower will work for the check. | Bee Hives will check for air and flowers in a 7x7 and 3 high area centered at the hive.

To reduce the Repair Cost of an item, drop beeswax in an amount greater than or equal to the Repair Cost of the tool, along with the tool onto an anvil. Then power a downwards facing piston above the items to apply the wax onto the tool. This will lower the Repair Cost by one level, and can be repeated until the Repair Cost is 0. | ||

Bee hives will only fill up bowls with honey if the bowls are in a stack of 1. Players can only drink bowls of honey when they are hungry, but can drink bottles of honey at any time. | Bee hives will only fill up bowls with honey if the bowls are in a stack of 1.
