Beehive. WTH?!

[VYM]

Question number one. It's automated by who? There is no option to assign any thrall and my farmer don't do anything with it.
Question number 2. There is bee amount indicator 0/500. I put 16 bee syrup and attracted 8/500 bees. Are you serious?! I need to craft 1000 bee syrups from 1000 bananas, 1000 pineapples and 1000 papaya to attract 500/500 bees?!

No around 100/150 syrup to get 500 Bees.

No. I put in almost 100 syrup and I have 42 bees.

What difficulty are you playing on? that might be the reason i'm on easy.

I don't know about the OP, but I am on hard.

After a certain number of bees, the number itself began to increase without adding syrup. Are you sure that the server you are playing on has the latest updates?

[VYM]

Playing solo.
2 syrup=1 bee.
100 syrup=50 bees and I'm out of fruits and zero honey/wax. Not freaking funny. Another total BS.

I've just put 130-ish syrup and bees stopped consuming it and left 29 of syrup, they kept filling bees automatically.

Anyone knows how to get beewax anyways? My bees produce honey only :(

[VYM]

And now my game progress is just stuck because I need wax to make radiation protection to go to radiated area. And I cannot make any more syrup because I'm out of bananas. And I cannot harvest or grow up bananas, I'm fully depend on random monkeys loot which is broken ATM. Amazing.

It'll produce the wax, it just comes after it has produced enough honey

[VYM]

Ok, after feeding to bees 50 syrup their number itself began to increase without adding any syrup more. Great. But after 500/500 and half a day of waiting they produced...10 honey. That's it. No wax, no more honey. What's next?

[VYM]

Wow! Great news! I finally found guava at level 50 fang fortress in advanced chest after defeating absolutely insane level 50 fang tribe chief! Now I can make more bee syrup and build more beehives!
Jesus Christ, what a total BS...

According to the wiki:
To attract bees, place Bee-drawing Syrup inside. They will consume it until the hive is full enough to produce honey. After consuming 100 Bee-drawing Syrup (50 bees), the bees will become self-replicating and no longer require syrup.
Not sure the time/chance of making honey and/or wax however.

Also, capturing a few monkeys and setting them up with Monkey dens will bring in fruits pretty easily.
