Lazy Bees?

Post by bagofnuts »

Yo dudes. Farmer here, my beehive doesn't seem to be pollinating some crops, but is pollinating others. It's always the same squares on the grid. I've checked and the crops are well within the beehive's radius. All the other crops behave like there is a hive nearby, and it's most noticeable with the hemp, where all the crops save for four are mature. The other four are two stages behind in growth, and unharvestable until many hours later.

As far as I know, beehives don't have a crop limit save for the criteria that the crops have to be in their radius.
My other beehive has way more crops, and a greater percentage of those crops are growing at the speed that they should be, save for one single pumpkin.
Perhaps it's the tiles themselves?

Well, beehives and pumpkins don't work together if I recall correctly, so that won't make any difference... however, pollination is a bit random, and I've seen the slower growing plants such as hemp and wheat that far apart. It's not a bug as far as I'm aware, just bad luck with the RNG.

Ah, hm, okay then. I can continue studies and see if I still get constant results for now. Though, it is irritating having to wait for the next day so that the perfectionist inside me can harvest and plant those crops all at the same times.

The pumpkin thing, I'm not so sure about. My friend planted pumpkins, half of the field inside the beehive radius and half outside. The half that was inside have advanced a stage hours earlier than the ones outside.
It's not that big of a deal though, since pumpkins take so long to grow anyway.
