For making Honey and Beeswax.



WARNING: This information was copied from an older wiki and is currently out of date in regards to how apiaries produce honey, beeswax, and royal jelly (yes, they have been producing royal jelly for years now)


An Apiary allows you to keep bees, which produce Honey, Royal Jelly, and Beeswax.

Sources

This building becomes available after you have learned Beekeeping.

Cost

Use

When building apiaries, try to set them up away from crowded areas. The /crowd command can return the relative crowding of an area - under 14% is best.

When first built, the apiary is empty and must attract a queen bee before it begins producing.

  • Important: after you check for a queen and it has one and about 1000 bees, check immediately again. The hive will not produce any Honey or Beeswax until you do this.
  • Note: on occasion, a hive will, for whatever reason, fail to attract a queen. If several days go by without a queen arriving, one can either continue to try or tear down the hive and rebuild it.

After you have checked it for the first time, wait approximately 16 hours for first full 10 Honey/"[produces" contains a listed "[" character as part of the property label and has therefore been classified as invalid.. After this you can collect about every 7 hours.

Apiary production caps at 10 Honey, 10 Beeswax and 10 Royal Jelly. If there is already 10 of each when you check, it will be overwritten with the new harvest and will not increase. However, if you didn't take the honey/beeswax/royal jelly from the last check, take the contents of the hive, then check, the hive will fill with the new hive production.

Apiaries can hold up to 1000 bees. When harvested, the apiary will lose half its bees, slowing production time of the next batch.

  • As your speed stat increases, you will begin getting the following message on some harvests: "Due to your quick Speed checking, no bees escaped,"
  • Because of this, the hive will require less time before another 10 Honey/Beeswax/Royal Jelly are produced.
  • The higher your speed,the more frequently this message will appear.

Apiaries are visible and audible to a range of 32 coordinates.
