Q10 Wax?

[gad432]

i got q10 wax on all crops exept carrot. carrot do normal wax/

[piopepik]

From my understanding (may be false), if any tick (or maybe last tick which means the tick that makes wax harvastable) is from passive wax/honey generation, then the wax you harvest will be quality 10. I got to this conclusion, by sometimes getting Q10 wax from my carrot field if i left it for too long, fully grown up, so the carrots (or any other crop) is not generating wax since it's not changing stages. So my advice for anyone, would be, have a just right amount of beehives for the size of your field and type of crop (not too many because then some of them will not get to generate wax properly but passively), and also harvest your crops frequently so there won't be any passive generation going on, which may be sometiems impossible to do when your crops fully grow overnight and get some passive generation then.

is not a bug, is a feature

was having the same issue, and then after i got my first tick of q10 wax on each of my new beehives they instantly jumped up to q30 next wax harvest


p.s hemp isn't affected by bee skeps

Will look at it.

Does harvesting crops inside the radius of the skeep lower the quality of the wax?

Does harvesting crops inside the radius of the skeep lower the quality of the wax?

Quality is based on the crops as they are pollinated, not at harvest. I believe planting counts, though.

[Myrgard]

Can confirm the same issue as described in the first post, all crops and beehives well above q 10.

Also I've found brand new hives serving large fields to sometimes produce q 10 wax within the first 3-4 days from being build, meaning it's not just wild pollination mixing with crop servicing as a beehive build without any fields in rage wouldn't produce wax that fast.

Fresh report.
Here's my field:

A half-hour has passed from the moment the first beehive was built till the last crop was planted.
Today, I've got my first wax harvest - those marked with blue all gave me q10 wax. After an hour I've visited my field again and collected wax from those marked with red (they haven't yet produced wax when I was collecting from blue ones) - all they gave me normal wax with normal quality averaging crops/beehives quality.
All beehives have the same quality (+/- 1-2 maybe).
...
Yes, I know that's too many beehives for that small field, but that's nothing related to the bug itself. Those at the bottom line covering exactly the same amount of crops as at the top line.

It might be related though if the beehives start polinating from same direction and if a beehive ends up trying to polinate a crop that has been polinated by a previous beehive it might try and give wax but fuck up on the quality since technically it already polinated. Something like it checks if there is a growing crop in range if there is it adds a tick to wax and honey but when it check the quality of the crop it finds out it already got used so instead of crashing the server it just gives q10 quality. If there are multiple beehives overlaping there are more and more ticks of q 10 added wax until it all averages to q 10. Maybe.
