Q10 Wax?

Post by Onep »

I keep getting garbage q10 wax from beehives. All the hives are over q10 and all the crops are way over q10. Like 30% of it keeps coming out at q10.

probably not enough crops to really make full use of the beehives, so they revert to the default baseline production quality

Barley/wheat (and hemp - not sure) doesnt produce wax, maybe your issue

hives still passively generate honey and wax over time. The difference is they fall from where they were to q10. My best guess is that the opposite is true and they take some time to come up to the level of the crops they're pollinating.

my hives have the same issue, but theyve all been up for 2 weeks at least now

I feel like this isn't the problem. I don't have a lot of hives and before I added the last few some of my crops were even slowing down in growth. I feel like last world I never had this issue at all.
Also, the passive generation on hives is super slow. I'm still getting wax pretty regularly. I don't think they're missed every single tick.

it feels like there's some minimum use threshold above that of honey for wax. i've been getting >10 honey from hives that only produce q10 wax once every few days, while other hives are producing a lot of >10 wax in addition to honey

if i had to theorycraft i'd guess that some hives are just prioritized over others and that those hives are able to keep pace with demand, preventing enough from trickling down to the others to trigger wax

I have a similiar problem with hives on flax fields. My carrots and beetroots are all cool giving me 50+ Q wax but something is wrong with flax. I have Q22 hive, Q32 Flax and the hive is giving me Q10 wax, and i have taken wax from these hives like 2-3 times and it's been always Q10. Honey is ok from them, but these waxes. How are you supposed to do these good ctc for my guys. They are starting to riot help plox...

"Cheat" the system. Instead of growing crops in one big patch spread them out so that all hives are properly triggered.

Until then, yeah, this could definitely use a fix, I think.

Also, make hive radius much smaller. If all it can speed up is 6/hour, 50 max crops in one go (assuming stored charges), then no point of having a larger radius. Means possibly less control.
