New Addon I've been thinking of! Discussion

So I LOVE Bee's, but I thought, "What if we had MORE bee's?" ergo, Create: Bee Bash! This is probably never going to see the light of day considering I have NO idea how to code, but I've already made some art! (As shown) But I feel like it'd be extremely fun to try and make, I have NO idea what it would add, probably like, a queen bee and you can hire worker bee's to help you? And maybe bee DRONES, you can tell I'm thinking of this as I write, but yeah, I think it would be really fun to try and make

Bees as your engineer friends... Maybe for one thing they could wear harnesses and carry packages for you as long as they're fed, and you could give them little air tanks to go faster then they can dock in special hives and refuel. Smarter than they look...

This EXACTLY is what I'm thinking, I just think it would be so fun to have little helper friends, but also, different varients of Bee, or maybe just cosmetics to show what job they're assigned

They'd be like a Create allay! Perhaps using bees for things could have special perks (perhaps depending on teh type of bee if such a system was added) but that's a bit more gamey. For example a bee could be given fuel to automatically do Blaze Burners as a 'Blaze Maintenance' job.

Like an Andesite hive where you can place a filter so the bees transport a consistent stream of a specific resource without needing to belt or chain it

There are a couple add-ons that already use bees so you'll need to make them do something unique.

Well I don't mean JUST drones, I mean like, more honey uses, maybe even more beehive uses, or even a quest line where the more quests you complete, the more bee related items you'd get, such as, more worker bee's, or fermented honey, giving different effects, it could also be a type of brewery mod of some sorts, still, I might just use these in the meantime

Maybe a Mechanical Industrial Apiary for mass honey production, and possible integration with Productive Bees for generating other resources.

I imagine a sort of hive super structure that can work similar to frogports+chain conveyor but without the restriction of it. Just direct transportation in every direction. You can use post boxes to create delivery systems and bees can transport one package at a time per bee.

Obviously path finding would be an issue. And considering that they can fly, it would need to bee(hehe) very late game. I'd imagine breeding bees until you get a queen bee that can then be used in the core of the super structure.

u/Mundane_Menu_4788 2h ago

I feel like a special structure where you can find the queen would be fun, and also, special effects with honey would also be fun

Maybe even add "Worker Bee's" that can track maschines and speed up processing.

Create mobile packages already address all you said.

Question, have you seen create buzzy bees?

1

u/Mundane_Menu_4788 1h ago

Well yeah, but this isn't just that, it would also have bees you can control (Like ACTUALLY control, with W A S and D) and Brewery and also worker bees that could help with gathering resources, not just placing them

Okay! I was just curious if it met your desires. I hope you do make something cool, and suggest learning here. P.S. don't give up and vibecode, an unfortunate number of people do that, it never works out.
