When messing around with bee hives I found that their honey_level was not going up, even though I observed multiple bees entering and leaving. I then placed down a bee nest and it worked correctly.
To reproduce:
Put down bee hive
Allow bees to enter
❌ Honey level stays the same
Environment
OS: OSX 10.13.6 (High Sierra)
Java: 1.8.0
