bee hive does only make honey until 8/8
i used to have plenty of honey so i made once a week the sweet veggie cakes for my snails. the hive was up to 200 or something slots full. two days ago i removed all honey to add some more stacks of rare flowers and today there were only 4 honeypots inside , already half spoiled and obviously honey production stopped when the 8 slots were full. why is that? and how can i get again more honey? it is already a hassle to feed those snails but if i can only make two cakes at a time it will be too much... :steamsad:

you need to keep an eye on patch notes

v264.52
- Oil Pump and Beehive now restricted to slot cap (and slot cap increased for both).

Bee hives and oil pumps now only fill to the max alloted slots, they do not over produce anymore. It was in the patch notes.

it was easy? feeding those snails was a pain in the ... and now even more! :steamsad:
and the spoil timer on honey is ridiculous. why do i have to make sweet cake now everyday instead of once a week to feed my snails. what kind of pure nonsense is this.

The slot limit on a vanilla bee hive is 45 slots and will stop producing once it reaches full until there is a free slot.

I killed my snails after they made veggie cakes take honey. It's just not worth it anymore.

Sounds like someone just needs more behives.

Or even just do cave runs on a saber. That nets enough chitin to make a lot of paste.

Thats what I do also run up beach after trilobites and turtles.

I always thought honey didn't have an expery date or is that only irl?

the slot limit on our official prim+ server is still 8! please fix that.

Tame more queen bees and turn them into more hives. Simple as that.

lol? only caus they cant implement their changes properly? if it had 45 slots like intended then it would be ok, but 8? plus there is not enough room in my bee house for more hives
