Bees!
- Adds a new type of bee entity that flies around hives and feeds on flowers.
- Bees periodically make a buzzing sound which can help with locating wild hives.
- Changes the swarming bee model to support new bee entity.
Latest Update:
What's new in v1.1.7:
- Updated mod for game version 1.21!
- Added new mod icon.
In progress:
Buzzy Bees and Friends v1.2.0:
- New model for fireflies.
Buzzy Bees and Friends v1.3.0:
- New AI for bees to travel in and out of their hive for consistant and realistic behavior.
Compatibility:
- Buzzwords by SpearAndFang.
- From Golden Combs by Vinter_Nacht and Huldra_Nacht - Buzzy bees will only appear around wild hives due to conflicting classes.
Notes:
- This mod will only affect hives and skeps that were placed or generated in the world after this mod is installed. If playing on an already existing world you must replace all of your hives or discover new wild hives to see the bees.
- The bee model I've used comes from the original game, though it has yet to be officially implemented. I have merely taken the liberty of using this asset to apply and animate them into the game.
