Hi, I have a suggestion to make the beekeeping system more realistic and immersive.
It would be great if bees behaved more like in real life. For example, players could use a smoker to calm the bees before interacting with the hive. Without using smoke or proper protection, bees could become aggressive and sting the player.
In addition, players could craft and wear protective beekeeping clothing to reduce the risk of getting stung while working with hives.
It would also be really interesting to have a more realistic beehive structure. Instead of simple interaction, players could have a proper beehive that can be opened, where they can take out individual frames with honeycombs. This would make the process feel more hands-on and closer to real-life beekeeping.
For honey production, it would be interesting if the process was more detailed. After collecting honeycombs, players would first need to remove the beeswax (uncapping), then extract the honey using a honey extractor, and finally filter or sieve it before it is ready to use.
It would also be really cool to add related beekeeping items such as a honey extractor, an uncapping fork, a honey sieve, and a full protective suit. These items could be crafted or obtained later in the game and would add more depth to the beekeeping system.
This would make the whole process feel more realistic and rewarding, especially for players who enjoy detailed survival mechanics.
I believe this system could also fit well into the game’s progression, starting simple and becoming more advanced over time.
