Where's bee

[mie001]

I completely lost track, where can we find it now?

So, Beehives also don't seem to respawn so it's a race against time really to be able to build the hives when you get one started...

They respawn in portal worlds on portal reset, I guess.

They spawn randomly throughout the facility and will despawn if you do not collect them

[ShockedHearts]

I found 1 in mycofields, one in manufacturing west, and one inside of a hidden area.

I think there is atleast 1 in every 'area' past offices but I could be wrong.

The one I got from the first portal world (far garden) has not respawned in 10 resets

I've had the one in the Far Garden respawn twice, with both times the items falling into the void.

Lucky me, an old safety feature the devs put in allowed me to recover the lost items after a reload of the save. The items were floating right where the hive was at when I made another round to check if it reappeared (this time with a vacuum) and was able to make a hive.

I looked up the Steam Guide on where hives could be at, but had no luck on finding others, besides the one I already found in the hot fungus area.

An infuriating thing about the hives, the first time I lost the items to the void I hit Alt F4 to not save what happened (not believing the recovery system would work) and loaded back up, only for the hive to not show up that time. So there seems to be some sort of RNG check that happens as you enter an area, and not something that respawns after a given amount of time.

I found another bee hive in labs, it's still there, even while I didn't collect it and left labs multiple times.

Bee hives seem to spawn any time you enter or exit a portal world, like i had one time where i entered and exited the anteworld portal and a beehive spawned on the only spawnpoint that world where it was not on before. Run around micofield and anteworld and you`ll find one eventually. Just bring a Personal Teleporter or beekeeping suit to not die to it. Also beware, because (especially in the anteworld portal world) the beehive drops can just drop into the void, so use a shotgun and quickly pick them up before the bees kill you. or something falls too far.

P.S. you need to destroy 2 bee hives to make 1 craftable beehive, but you only need 1 craftable beehive to make the other beehive out of the queen bee

The Beekeeper Suit, melee weapon, and vacuum are recommended for the first Far Garden portal world. You'll have a moment to vacuum up the drops before they fall into the void.

If they do fall into the void, reload the save (making sure that your saved before hand) and the dropped items should show back up, held in place, roughly where the hive was at. You might want to wait a moment before reloading the save, to make sure the game realizes that the items were very much lost.

It's counter intuitive, but the feature is there to more or less recover lost items.

Don't even need the melee, the vacuum breaks 'breakables' that aren't furniture to schloorp up all the tasty drops

Excellent resource here: https://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=3378986650

note that you won't always find the hives; make sure to visit the spots many times while exploring and keeping a beekeeper suit handy helps.
