Added Howling Constructs biome filled with tons of mysteriously floating discs. A good biome to practice parkouring and has some small loot!

Dimension:

Fishing in Bumblezone dimension now has custom loot!

Structures:

Added Subway structure that is a massive tunnel system with flowing air that bees uses to travel around quickly! Lots of loots scattered throughout from all the travelers that has gone through this subway. Can you fight against the airflow to explore everything?

Added Ancient Hoops structure which are many old pillars of wax that are decaying. Some pillars still have a hoop on top that mysteriously pulls air flow through. Grab a Bumblebee Chestplate and start flying from pillar to pillar!

Added Ancient Shrine structure that resembles a giant flower filled with pollen! Though the pollen looks suspicious... Maybe try some archaeology in this structure?

Added 6 Sempiternal Sanctum structures! A giant structure with mazes and danger that is best done after consuming Essence of the Bees item. In the heart is an Essence Block you touch to start an essence event. Beat the difficult events for new end game items! By default, these events can be repeated after winning. Set repeatableEssenceEvents to false in config to disable being able to repeat the event after winning.

Added Honey Slime Ranch. A small Shepherd Villager trapped in Bumblezone that is surviving off of Honey Slimes.

Blocks:

Added Ancient Wax blocks! Very high blast resistance, uncraftable, and will give Slowness, Weakness, and Mining Fatigue to anyone who has not consumed Essence of the Bees before and are standing on said Ancient Wax blocks. You can use shears to convert between 3 different patterns for these blocks. Only found in certain structures. Can be crafted into stairs or slabs. Stonecutter has more efficient recipe for making stairs/slabs.

Added Luminescent Wax Channel blocks, Luminescent Wax Corner blocks, and Luminescent Wax Node blocks! Very high blast resistance, uncraftable, and will give Slowness, Weakness, and Mining Fatigue to anyone who has not consumed Essence of the Bees before and are standing on said Ancient Wax blocks. If the block has a light in it, people who consumed Essence of the Bees before and standing on said blocks will get Speed, Damage Resistance, and Beenergized. The light forms will repel Piglins and Hoglins and also will count towards empowering Enchanting Table like Bookshelves do. You can use shears to change the direction of these blocks. Only found in certain structures. The light forms can be crafted into lightless forms.

Windy Air added that will push any entity in whatever direction the air block is blowing! Only found in certain structures. Can be found in Creative Menu for builders! Can be controlled by this entity type tag: the_bumblezone:windy_air/immune_to_push_effect Bee Queen will give you Windy Air for Bumblezone armor or tools as an easy way to dispose of those unstackable items.

Heavy Air added that will pull entities down and remove Levitation, Slow Falling, Jump Boost, and non-creative flying! Has no effect on Bees and Beehemoth. Only found in Sempiternal Sanctums. Can be found in Creative Menu for builders! Can be controlled by this entity type tag: the_bumblezone:heavy_air/immune_to_gravity_effect

Suspicious Pile of Pollen is added now! You may find these scattered throughout Bumblezone in certain structures. Brush them for loot! Also found in Creative Menu for builders, but you'll need to set the items or loot table for the block by command. They can also be found throughout the Pollinated Fields biomes with a decent amount of possible loot!

Added 2 new patterns for Carvable Wax! The new patterns are called Music and Grate.

Items:

Essence of Life - The reward for beating the Green Sempiternal Sanctum structure! Holding this item in offhand will grow crops and saplings nearby, heal mobs tamed by you, and heal other mobs or players on the same team as you! Also, will cure Poison and Wither effect from the healed mobs and yourself. It has 1000 use before it is depleted and needs 10 minutes to recharge by being in the inventory of a player that had consumed Essence of the Bees in the past. Add more effects to the_bumblezone:essence/life/cure_effects mob effects tag for this item to be able to remove said tagged effects from allies/pets! Use the following two tags to control what plants can be grown or not with this item. Let me know if a modded plant is not able to be grown:

the_bumblezone:essence/life/grow_plants

the_bumblezone:essence/life/force_disallowed_grow_plant

Essence of Radiance - The reward for beating the Yellow Sempiternal Sanctum structure! Holding this item in offhand while being in a spot with sky brightness 13 or above (basically in view of the sky) will grant you Regeneration 1, Saturation 1, Speed 1, Haste 2, and Damage Resistance 2. It will also slowly heal your armor durability as well over time! It has 4800 use before it is depleted and needs 10 minutes to recharge by being in the inventory of a player that had consumed Essence of the Bees in the past. Add or remove effects to give to player by editing the_bumblezone:essence/radiance/sun_effects mob effects tag. Add armor items to the_bumblezone:essence/radiance_cannot_repair item tag if you have armor that should not be repaired.

Essence of Knowing - The reward for beating the Purple Sempiternal Sanctum structure! Holding this item in offhand will highlight mobs and outline certain block entities near you! Allowing you to see what monster is nearby or hidden chests or suspicious blocks! It will also tell you the name of any structure you are in! It has 1200 use before it is depleted and needs 15 minutes to recharge by being in the inventory of a player that had consumed Essence of the Bees in the past. This highlighting can be configured on client side by config. Server owners can use the block and entity tags to force things to be highlighted or not regardless of what the client config is set as. (The tags can be used to also correct highlighting issues on other mod's mobs with this item on) The entity type tags you can edit are these. Disable tag overrides all:

the_bumblezone:essence/knowing/prevent_highlighting

the_bumblezone:essence/knowing/forced_green_highlight

the_bumblezone:essence/knowing/forced_cyan_highlight

Essence of Calming - The reward for beating the Blue Sempiternal Sanctum structure! Holding this item in offhand will make mobs nearby no longer get angry at you! (Let me know if a modded mob still attacks you while this essence is active) The effect is lost early if player gets hurt by any mob or attacks any mob. If the player sprints while it is active, the item loses power crazy quickly! No rushing! It has 600 use (seconds) before it is depleted and needs 10 minutes to recharge by being in the inventory of a player that had consumed Essence of the Bees in the past. The entity type tag the_bumblezone:essence/calming/allow_anger_through can be used to mark entities that should keep staying angry at players with this calming effect active. Note, due to implementation, this tag may not always work but let me know if it fails so I can investigate the specific use case.

Essence of Raging - The reward for beating the Red Sempiternal Sanctum structure! Holding this item in offhand will highlight 4 nearby hostile mobs in red. Killing them will grant you Strength status effect and it will highlight more hostile mobs nearby (never more than 4 at a time) Each highlighted kill makes Strength effect stronger and maxes out at Strength 16 after killing 7 highlighted mobs! Making this a powerful boss destroyer weapon! The Strength only lasts 15 seconds between kills. If time runs out or you kill a non-highlighted mob, the item goes into 10 second cooldown. Making any kill after maxed Strength will also set the item onto 10 second cooldown. It has 28 use (highlighted kills) before it is depleted and needs 30 minutes to recharge by being in the inventory of a player that had consumed Essence of the Bees in the past. It will set cooldown on all other Essence of Raging that player has as well due to how powerful this item is. Add or remove effects to give to player by editing the_bumblezone:essence/raging/rage_effects mob effects tag.

Essence of Continuity - The reward for beating the White Sempiternal Sanctum structure!

It will set cooldown on all other Essence of Continuity that player has as well due to how powerful this item is. It even works in hardcore worlds! It will also give you a Written Book with details of where you were and how you almost died.

Added Flower Headwear crafted from 8 flower items surrounding a Leather Helmet! This can be dyed with dyes and washed in Cauldron just like Leather armor. Wearing this makes bees follow you around thinking you're a giant flower! If you have Wrath of the Hive, this headwear will make the timer on that effect decrease much faster and will decrease even faster if wearing 4 or more bee-themed wearables (including this item). You will also be able to enter Cell Maze structure without getting Wrath of the Hive when wearing this item! Can also be worn in a Curios head slot or Trinkets head/hat slot. Its effects does not stack with existing Flower Headwear in helmet slot.

Added Buzzing Briefcase item! Rare drop from Bee House and Honitel structure's loot. Also, a rare drop from tier 4 Bee Queen trades (Honey Block/Honey Buckets mainly as want items). Right click (or hold right click) on a bee to stuff it into the briefcase. It can hold up to 14 bees of any kind. Shift right click to open the briefcase UI where you can heal bees, put stingers back on, pollinate them, or grow babies up to be an adult. You can release the bees from the briefcase by UI or by left clicking on a block. Left clicking on an entity releases the bees and have them attack the entity you left clicked. Do shift left click to release all the bees at once from briefcase.

Added Bee Soup that is craftable from Bee Bread, Bowl, Beetroot, Potato, 2 Honey Combs, and 1 Bee Stinger. Drinking this soup gives you a long level 2 Beenergized effect and has a chance of inflicting Levitation, Slow Falling, Poison, Paralysis, or Luck status effect on you. You could get multiple of these effects at once if you're unlucky (or lucky if it is good effects)! Can be found in some structures's loot!

Added Dirt Pellet item craftable from Coarse Dirt + Rooted Dirt. It can be thrown like a Snowball for 1 point of damage and high knockback. However, it will deal 3 points of damage to most flying mobs (modded included)! Controlled by these entity tags to change what will receive bonus damage:

the_bumblezone:dirt_pellet/extra_damage_dealt_to

the_bumblezone:dirt_pellet/forced_no_extra_damage_dealt_to

Added Neurotoxin Potions you can brew from Bee Soup! Can be lengthened in time with Redstone ingredient.

Pile of Pollen item form is now available in Creative Menu and can be crafted from 9 Pollen Puff in Crafting Table. Silk Touch mining a Pile of Pollen that is layer 8 will drop the Pile of Pollen item instead of the Pollen Puff items.

Added 8 new Banner Patterns to find throughout Bumblezone in certain structures and Suspicious Pile of Pollen!

Entities:

Added a new entity called Variant Bee! It is exactly like the vanilla bee in behavior but has a different skin on. This replaces the old UUID system Bumblezone had to replace vanilla bee skins. Now that system is gone and the bee variants are now a dedicated entity for Bumblezone! 4 new variants were added as well. The variant's types are exposed by a "variant" string tag in their nbt. You can add or remove variants to spawn by editing the variantBeeTypes config entry (Server config takes priority over client's). Be sure to add new bee textures to these files for the new bee variant you added to spawn with the textures it needs!

assets/the_bumblezone/textures/entity/bee_variants/<VariantType>/bee.png

assets/the_bumblezone/textures/entity/bee_variants/<VariantType>/bee_angry.png

assets/the_bumblezone/textures/entity/bee_variants/<VariantType>/bee_angry_nectar.png

assets/the_bumblezone/textures/entity/bee_variants/<VariantType>/bee_nectar.png

Added a new non-living entity called Sentry Watcher that lives in Sempiternal Sanctum and will blow up if taken out of the structure or somehow killed. This bee statue will charge at any living non-bee mob in front of it and will break through many blocks up to a certain total explosion resistance of the wall of blocks. The damage it deals to all in its way will increase the faster the statue is moving. Wear Bee Armor or Bee Curios/Trinkets will reduce a bit of damage as well. Some tags to configure its behavior are:

the_bumblezone:sentry_watcher/always_destroy (block tag)

the_bumblezone:sentry_watcher/forced_never_destroy (block tag)

the_bumblezone:sentry_watcher/activates_when_seen (entity tag)

the_bumblezone:sentry_watcher/forced_never_activates_when_seen (entity tag)

the_bumblezone:sentry_watcher/cannot_damage (entity tag)

A survival craftable spawn egg is also available where these egg-spawned watchers cannot destroy blocks and can be removed by owner double right clicking on it, The watcher will not charge at their owner as well. If spawned from a Dispenser, anyone can double right click remove the entity. These spawn eggs cannot be set into a Spawner unless the player is in Creative Mode.

Rootmins are now added! A mob that disguises itself as a Grass Block with a flower on top that is often found in Floral Meadow biome or in certain structures. It will come out of hiding to shoot a Dirt Pellet at any player or spiders nearby. If player has at least 1 bee armor or trinket/curios on, the Rootmin will not attack and instead, might walk up to the player while being curious. Players can right-click this mob with another flower to swap the flower on its head or give it a name tag! Flowers that Rootmins naturally spawn with and what flower they can receive are controlled by these block tags:

the_bumblezone:rootmin/default_flowers

the_bumblezone:rootmin/allowed_flower

the_bumblezone:rootmin/forced_disallowed_flower

Rootmins are fearful of Iron Golems, Blazes, Wither, and Warden to the point they will try to run away if too close! Rootmin targeting can be controlled by these entity tags:

the_bumblezone:rootmin/forced_do_not_target

the_bumblezone:rootmin/panic_avoid

the_bumblezone:rootmin/targets

Added Snow Block to Clay Block and its opposite to Bee Queen Trades.

Added "is_target_tag" field to the_bumblezone:killed_counter trigger for advancements. Now you can make "target_entity" point to a tag. As a result, some of the Queen's Desire's advancements now checks entity tags for what counts towards them. These are:
