    If you are currently using version: Unstable d, this version, like the last, removes many old bee types and replaces them. There was a large breeding update last patch. Update at your own discretion.
    Changes:
    • Industrial Centrifuge: Working Animation, Working Sound Effect
    • Honey Jarrer: Working Animation, Working Sound Effect
    • Aggressive Bees: Now sting nearby players when working in an apiary.
    • Morbid Bees: Now sting nearby players when working in an apiary.
    • Bee Suit: Prevents bee stings from the above bee types.
    • PGI Fix for normal bees. They were trying to spawn an obsolete bee.
    • Drones/Queens now stack to 1000.
    • Drone formula changed. Now uses the square root of the drones + 10.
      Previously, 64 drones gave 26 "bee power", and 1 drone gave 12. So, That was 2.333 times the efficiency with a full stack of drones.
      Now: 64 drones = 18 Bee Power. 1 Drone = 11 Bee Power. 1000 Drones = 41 Bee Power. This means that if you reach an ungodly number of drones, your apiary will function almost 4 times as fast.
      Alternatively, if you remove 500 Drones, you drop from 41 Bee Power to 32 Bee Power, so multiple apiaries are more efficient. This allows players to remove half stacks of drones with minimal drawbacks.
      (Note: The apiary now spawns honey at a slower rate than previously. This is intended, as getting 200 combs in 20 minutes was a bit much from 1 apiary. Multiple apiaries are now important when farming a single comb type. 2 apiaries with 4 drones function at the rate of 1 apiary with 144 drones. Drone spawn rate has been increased 250%. )

      Mutated Drones may be spawning a bit fast for now. Queens a bit slow. You can aquire the bees types from sub branches (The bees prior to the final bee in a branch) much more easily, but the final part of each branch does still require a spawned queen. Use multiple apiaries to increase queen spawns.
