Manage Honey Production Without Guessing

Monitor Hive Status Before Harvesting

To harvest honey efficiently, right-click your beehive or bee nest to see:

  • Current bee population
  • How long bees have been inside (indicating honey production progress)
  • Individual bee ages

Plan Your Harvest

Use this data to decide your next action:

  • Full hive with mature bees: Safe to harvest honey; bees have had time to produce
  • Young bees: They're still developing; give them time before harvesting

Avoid Bee Loss

By checking hive status first, you can harvest honey strategically without accidentally destroying a hive full of productive bees. This mod removes the need to break the hive to see what's inside, keeping your bee population stable and your honey production consistent.
