Bee Mastery v1.1.0

🐝 Bee Mastery v1.1.0

[1.1.0] - 2026-07-05

Added

• Aura Belt: new item that holds up to 2 Aura Charms — a bare charm no longer pulses on its own, it must be socketed in the belt (hold belt + charm, right-click to socket; sneak + right-click to remove). This is the balance gate for the aura system: no more free-riding all 5 auras at once from your inventory.
• Hive Synergy: apiaries running the same aura now amplify each other when clustered within ~12 blocks — up to +60% pulse area from 4 neighbouring hives of the same aura. Build a themed bee-yard, not a scattered one.
• JEI Aura category: every aura now has its own JEI page listing its effect, radius and pulse interval.
• In-game guide book (Patchouli): covers the breeding tandem, the aura system, frame progression and tools. Craft it from a Book + Reinforced Propolis.
• Witheria Ingot & Witheria Block: closes a gap where the Witheria tier had a comb, nugget, frame and stick but no ingot or storage block.
• Ranch Frame: a flavour frame for the farmyard bee line (Clayious/Pig/Cow/Sheep/Potato/Carrot), crafted from leather, wool, clay and carrot instead of a metal tier.
• New hand-drawn textures for propolis, grafters, scoops, ingots, nuggets, storage blocks and the aura belt, replacing tinted placeholder art.
• A small "wow" touch: an action-bar readout naming the active aura (colour-matched) while you're inside its pulse radius.

Changed

• Frame tandem recipes now escalate: Reinforced Frame requires a Diamond Frame; Draconic Frame requires both a Witheria and a Reinforced Frame (mirroring the bee's own mutation parents); Legendary Frame requires a Witheria Frame, a Draconic Frame, and a Nether Star.
• Grafter recipes reworked: the ingot now sits at the blade tip with 2 sticks forming the handle, instead of 3 plain sticks.
• Bees drop nuggets, not ingots: Reinforced/Legendary/Mutated bees now drop their metal as a nugget (matching the refining chain); Draconic and Witheria bees gained a nugget drop they were previously missing entirely.
• Propolis is obtainable again: centrifuging Draconic/Legendary/Reinforced/Witheria/Mutated combs now has a 10% chance of propolis, alongside the nugget and honey.
• Aura Charms are now crafted from the matching propolis instead of a bee comb.

Fixed

• Copper frame/stick recipes no longer require the Thermal mod to be loaded — they only ever needed the vanilla copper ingot tag.
• Witheria Frame was uncraftable: its stick recipe depended on an Ingot that was never registered. Added the missing ingot end-to-end (item, model, textures, recipes, localization).
• Removed ~160 unused legacy texture files (old pre-refactor art, duplicate asset folders, orphaned tint sources) left over from earlier iterations.
• Removed dead duplicate bee-mutation JSON files that mirrored the real (Java-registered) mutation data but were never actually loaded by anything.
