Minecraft Username: HyruleanHero Description: In version 1.15.2, this was added: "Oak and Birch trees grown from saplings that are within 2 blocks of any flower have 5% chance to grow with bee nest and 2 Bees in it." according to the Bee page on the official wiki: https://minecraft.gamepedia.com/Bee However, when I finally managed to grow an Oak tree with a nest attached, no bees spawned with it. If necessary, I can try again and record this time, but with such a low spawn rate, it was a bit unpredictable and I had no idea when I'd get one.
can also confirm. 6 successfully spawned bee nests in rising, and 3 successfully spawned bee nests in mining. no bees spawned.
Meh, probably to do with our spawn rates / so many mob spawners going. Try again after this coming Mining reset which will be a 1.15.1 generated world. PS: @UnitedStates2 play around with this and see if you can get some bees spawning in Mining. If you can't, I have no idea and might unfortunately shrug this one off, as it's almost certainly spawn rate related. None the less, once the new Mining world is up for February see if you can find some bees in the wild.
Collecting the honey from bee nests is the vanilla way of getting honey bottles to then craft honey blocks. On ECC /kit mobs2 gives 4 honey bottles (enough for 1 honey block).
The current running theory on the server is that the reason they don't spawn in Rising is because they are technically a hostile mob even though they are only hostile if provoked. If there was a way to set them as always passive, that would be lovely. At least in rising. It was pointed out to me that we might not be allowed to have such a thing in the end, but we can have lots of sheep and chicken within reason. So ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
Feel free to revisit and let us know your experiences once the Mining world has been reset and a bit of time has passed.
In the mining world correct? Awesome. Hurray for 1.15.1 mining! Can you confirm fresh ones are spawning as well as we do have a butcher in mining of course.
Yes, correct. Bees only spawn via oak/birch trees that can either be naturally generated or grown by a player. And yes, as said above, they consistently spawn in such an environment in mining.
