Bee Aggression & Behaviors 🐝

Behaviors of Bees within Bumblezone dimension! 🐝

• Any mob or player damaging a bee in The Bumblezone dimension will get Wrath of the Hive effect and a bunch of angry bees coming after them.

• Mining Honey Blocks or killing a Honeycomb Brood Block will give you Wrath of the Hive effect. Entering a Cell Maze structure will give you the effect as well. However, if you consume an Essence of the Bees item, you will no longer get the effect from mining blocks or entering Cell maze structure (See Essence of the Bees item in Item section for more info about it)

• Having Wrath of the Hive will turn the dimension's fog red, play Flight of the Bumblebee by Rimsky Korsakov, make nearby Honeycomb Brood Blocks grow and spawn bees much faster, and the dimension will spawn even more Bees a bit away from you to hunt you down! Grab your Bane of Arthropod sword!

• Bees can be fed Sugar Water Bottles and various honey based foods too to heal them and have a chance of giving you Protection of the Hive effect. This protection effect will remove Wrath of the Hive effect if you have it. Search $the_bumblezone:bee_feedable_items in JEI, REI, and EMI to see all feedable items in-game! You can add or remove items that can be fed to bees by overriding the the_bumblezone:bee_feedable_items tags.

  • Feeding bees a Sugar Water Bottle has a 7% of granting you Protection of the Hive effect.

  • Feeding the bee a Honey Bottle instead has a 30% chance of granting you Protection of the Hive effect.

  • Feeding a bee a Honey Bucket will fully heal the bee and put it and nearby bees into love mode (along with 80% chance of granting you Protection of the Hive effect) Feeding the Honey Bucket to a child bee will fully heal it and have a chance of growing it into an adult bee.

  • Royal Jelly Bottle and Bucket also fully heals bees, grows baby bees into adults, and will always grant you Protection of the Hive effect.

  • Other tagged bee feedable items will have a 10% chance unless they have "honey" in the name, then they have 20% chance of giving the Protection of the Hive effect.

• Any arthropod mob without "bee" in the name, any pandas, and any bears will get a weak version of Wrath of the Hive and nearby Bees will attack them in The Bumblezone dimension. Many modded beetles, spiders, dragonflies, and bears will be affected. This can be changed by editing or overriding these entity tag files by datapack:

  • the_bumblezone:bee_aggression_in_dimension/always_angry_at

  • the_bumblezone:bee_aggression_in_dimension/forced_calm_at

• When you have Protection of the Hive effect, nearby Bees will attack anyone who attacked you!

• Right clicking a pollinated bee while holding Water Bottle, Sugar Water Bottle, Water Bucket, or Wet Sponge will unpollinated the bee and drops a Pile of Pollen. (Should work with modded bees too)

• While holding a Bee Stinger item, right clicking a bee without a stinger will put a stinger onto the bee! (Should work with modded bees too)

• If you are lucky, you may find vanilla bees wearing special pajamas! Special thanks to Shy for making some pajamas! https://www.curseforge.com/minecraft/texture-packs/shy-trans-bee
