awasome script im gonna give it a try and like blue77 i think im gonna do the same lol but i dunno what items can be made from bee wax =/ candles and such?

Why not have alchemy use candles, and thus, make candles with the wax to be used in alchemy. :)

I just found the wax stacking issues on my shard too where I'm still staff testing it before shardwide release.

Its collecting wax.. but, its stacking.. however its not counting that it was stacked and theres no way to seperate it. So if you click multiple times, its all going into the same "peice" of beeswax (I'm guessing) If I set the beeswax on the ground, I can collect another peice.. when I drop them into my bag (by dropping them on my ingame image or paperdoll) they merge... unless I place them directly into the bag gump itself

I'll try your update, but based on what I just read, doesn't sound like it will help the stacking issue

The update should fix this. Before, you could harvest wax with an item count of 0 which could sort of mess things up. :eek:

Cyberspud I must say this is a good system. But I am not sure if this is an issue just for me or not. On my server as a staff member you can see the bees swarming around the hive. But as a player you cannot. The hives are still in the beginning stages, was wondering if that was why they are like that or is it something else?

The swarm of bees is hidden until the hive starts producing. As a GM you will be able to see them (they are "grayed" out). Hopefully this helps.

Just saying that my players cansee the bees as well as my admins.

Cyberspud, my issue is anyone can harvest your wax and honey, how do we make it so only the owner or maybe house friends can do this?

Thanks,
Dan

Since I havnt looked at this version of Apiculture yet... does the bee hive have a Owner field on it?

Cause if it does then just add a check where it shows the gump if it does that to see if from == owner I probably should look at the code before giving help... so if im way off just ignore it... I had a bad day today.

This was explained, the Beehive lookes for FlowerTiles and WaterTiles within range. The range is defined in the script. So if they choose to build their house where there is no water or flowertiles then their bees will probably die. Although I think they should be able to fix the Water Problem by adding a water tile to their custom house... but as far as the flowers I don't know if plants from the plantsystem work or not... if they do that's cool if they don't it would be a cool addon for this.

I have bees a buzzin, but I am also a plant grower, so as soon as I set them to decorative, Ill let you know if I see any change.
Been collecting ideas for things to make from the wax.
Anyone else working on a wax crafting system to go along with this?
I'd be interested to join in, if so!

Thanks!

Ok I have another question..... lol
I think I have everything needed for the wax crafting, but I still cannot do anything. Whenever I doubleclick the dipping sticks it tells me I need to be closer. Even with the waxpot on my backpack, or on a table next to me. Is there still something I am missing?


Also could you point me in the direction for Cristal's Apiculture script??

Awesome script. I can't wait until it's perfected. I have an easy solution to the "no flowers/water". Just use the Yard System. You can place Nature items inside/around your house with it. It lets you place flowers so place some flowers near your beehive inside your house and you are set! Also, for Wax Crafting... it would be neat if you could make some wax statues, candles (duh), and maybe use it to seal items somehow. Like you can make letters and send them to players using a postage system, but you need wax to seal the letters. That would be cool.

Me too and have tried changing several factors, any success on your end adding the craft part?
