Beehive

Template:BlockTileEntity

Bee nests are naturally generated blocks that house bees.

Beehives are crafted versions of bee nests.

Obtaining

A bee flying next to a bee nest.

Hives can be mined by any tool or by the player's fist, though they break faster with an axe. Bee nests do not drop anything unless mined with Silk Touch, but hives drop empty if broken without Silk Touch. If broken with a tool enchanted with Silk Touch, the bees remain inside. Otherwise, they emerge from the hive and swarm the player unless a campfire is underneath it.

Natural generation

A naturally generated bee nest in a Superflat village.

Bee nests generate hanging from oak and birch trees found in plains, sunflower plains and flower forest biomes, containing several bees. A tree in these biomes has a 5% chance to have a bee nest, only during world generation. Bee nests are more commonly found in the flower forest biome because that biome has more trees than the others.

Crafting

Ingredients	Crafting recipe
Any Planks + Honeycomb

Usage

Bee housing

The hives can house up to 3 bees at a time. Bees fly into the nest at night, during rain, and after pollinating to work.

Harvesting

Pollinated bees fly into beehives and start working for a while. When done, they exit the hive, increasing the honey level by 1. When the honey level has reached 5, the block's appearance changes, indicating that it is full of honey, and produces dripping honey particles if suspended above the ground. If shears are used on a full beehive, it drops three honeycombs. If an empty glass bottle is used on a full beehive, the bottle fills with honey, becoming a honey bottle. Harvesting honey causes any bees inside the hive to become aggravated toward the player. If there is a lit campfire directly underneath the hive (within five blocks, without obstruction), harvesting the hive does not aggravate the bees inside.

  • Tags common to all block entities
  •  Bees: Entities currently in the hive.
    • An entity in the hive.
      •  EntityData: The NBT data of the entity in the hive.

Shearing a colored sheep drops the corresponding color of the wool, and the sheep retains the color when the wool regenerates. [[Breeding]] colored sheep produces a lamb colored as one of the parent sheep, or a color resulting from the combination of both parents' color. The color combining follows the same rules that dyes use – red and yellow sheep produce an orange lamb, but a blue and yellow sheep cannot create a green lamb. The unlimited reproduction of colored sheep makes dyeing and shearing sheep infinitely more efficient than just dyeing wool directly.

Armor can be dyed multiple times with previous colors affecting the final outcome. Colored armor can be reverted to their original color using a [[cauldron]] with undyed water. The game has a specific formula for calculating the color of dyed armor: each color, in the RGB color model, has a red value, green value, and blue value. For each dye in the crafting grid, and the armor itself (if it is already dyed), the red, green, and blue values are added to running totals. In addition, a running total of the highest value (be it red, green, or blue) is also kept. After this, each total is divided by the number of colors used. This effectively produces the average red, green, blue, and maximum values. The maximum value of the average RGB values is also calculated. Finally, each average RGB value is multiplied by the average maximum value and divided by the maximum of the average RGB values. The modified average RGB values are then used as the final color. This procedure can be summed up with the following equations: for each color (all "total" variables start at 0 before counting): totalRed = totalRed + redValue totalGreen = totalGreen + greenValue totalBlue = totalBlue + blueValue totalMaximum = totalMaximum + max(redValue, greenValue, blueValue) numberOfColors = numberOfColors + 1 averageRed = totalRed / numberOfColors averageGreen = totalGreen / numberOfColors averageBlue = totalBlue / numberOfColors averageMaximum = totalMaximum / numberOfColors maximumOfAverage = max(averageRed, averageGreen, averageBlue) gainFactor = averageMaximum / maximumOfAverage resultRed = averageRed * gainFactor resultGreen = averageGreen * gainFactor resultBlue = averageBlue * gainFactor Due to the way this formula works, the resulting color can never be darker than the average of the input colors and is often lighter and more saturated. Of course, the resulting color can never be lighter or more saturated than the lightest or most saturated input color. In addition, this formula never creates an RGB value higher than 255 (which would be invalid in the 8-bit RGB color model). If leather armor is renamed on an [[anvil]], it retains its name when dyed or undyed. ;Mixing Samples : {{ItemSprite|Yellow Dye}} + {{ItemSprite|Yellow Dye}} = {{Tint|leather-chestplate| #{{CalcDye| yellow=2 }} | code=1}} : {{ItemSprite|Red Dye}} + {{ItemSprite|Blue Dye}} + {{ItemSprite|White Dye}} = {{Tint|leather-chestplate| #{{CalcDye| red=1 | blue=1 | white=1}} | code=1}} : {{ItemSprite|Green Dye}} + {{ItemSprite|Red Dye}} + {{ItemSprite|Pink Dye}} = {{Tint|leather-chestplate| #{{CalcDye| green=1 | red=1 | pink=1}} | code=1}} === Dyeing firework stars === A [[firework star]] can have a single color or a combination of up to eight colors when crafted with dyes.

transmitting them to their offspring. * In ''Bedrock Edition'', tertiary colors, along with their regular crafting recipes, can be crafted with primary colors. E.g.: Magenta can be crafted with one rose red and two bone meals. * The colors of the dyes match the chat colors in [[color codes]] except for brown (dye only), light aqua, and gold (color codes only). * The texture for light blue dye still uses the color from prior to the 1.12 World of Color update.<ref name="unchanged dyes"></ref> == References == {{reflist}} == External Links == * Tools for calculating leather dye combination: [https://minecraft.tools/en/armor.php minecraft.tools] (webapp); [https://github.com/pudquick/pyMCdyes/ pyMCDyes] (open-source Python script, outdated); [https://anrar4.github.io/DyeLeatherArmor/ DyeLeatherArmor]: a tool for calculating an exact crafting recipe for any sRGB color {{Items}} [[Category:Dyes]] [[Category:Renewable resources]] [[cs:Barvivo]] [[de:Farbstoff]] [[es:Tinte]] [[fr:Teinture]] [[hu:Színezés]] [[it:Colorante]] [[ja:染料]] [[ko:염료]] [[nl:Kleurstof]] [[pl:Barwniki]] [[pt:Corante]] [[ru:Красители]] [[th:สีย้อม]] [[uk:Барвники]] [[zh:染料]]</li></ul>		beta 1.14.0.1			Added bee nests.
