Queen Bee
by CerbonXD
Queen Bee adds a mini-boss bee to Forge worlds, along with a Stinger Sword, an Antenna item and a new structure built around the boss.
What it does
The Queen Bee boss begins friendly toward the player. Attacking her makes nearby bees turn hostile. During the fight she inflicts poison and nausea, and when the player stays too close she can spawn a poison nimbus. Defeating her drops her Antenna.
The mod adds three items: the Stinger, the Stinger Sword and the Antenna. Stingers come from bees and can be brewed into a poison potion, while the Stinger Sword is crafted from them and is faster than other swords. Pairing the sword with the Antenna gives a shift and right-click ability that summons a friendly bee to grant regeneration to the player and nearby friends.
Compatibility with Bumblezone is included, and Antenna behavior in the Bumblezone dimension can be enabled or disabled. Item descriptions and the stinger-to-poison potion brewing recipe are shown in a recipe viewer. The mod requires Geckolib, which must be installed alongside it for version 2.0 and above.
