Hi guys! I'm very pleased to present to you the Honey Production Mod!

This mod gives you 3 brand new functional objects, around 60 new craftables, new custom skill, custom animation and shelves to keep your craftables on.

1. Wild Beehive

Can be found under 'Outdoor Activities' and it costs 55$, has 3 recolor options

This is a tree log that contains one hive. It has bees visual effect and one interaction - Collect Wild Honey.

This interaction is available every 12 hours, and has 50% chance of success, if your Sim collect succesfully honey, they will find in their inventory a basket filled with honey (tha can be sold on Plopsy), if the interaction fails, they will end up with uncomfortable buff and no honey.

After your Sim gather Wild Honey, they can use the Honey Press, to filter it - which will give 6 jars with wild honey. The jars can be consumed or sold to a Health Food Store for profit.

2. Honey Press

Can be found under Outdoor or Indoor Activities, it costs 340$ and has 5 recolor options

Once a Sim has collected a basket with wild honey from the beehive or honey form the Bee Box (Seasons EP), they can perform different interactions on the press.

The interactions come with custom animation. Filtering Wild Honey result in receiving 6 jars with wild honey that can be collected for the press.

To press raw honey requires 1 jar of honey collected from the bee box (Seasons EP required!). The interaction gives three jars with random type of honey.

Jars of Honey may be used to eat, cook, combat cold or sold for profit.

2a. Honey Types

There are in total 25 different types of honey!

However, your Sim can produce only 5 out of them, depending where they live. With 3 types of honey being common for most regions, and 2 types being specific only to certain regions.

Multiflower Honey can be produced in all regions! Clover, Acacia and Sunflower are also common types of honey.

Based on regions:

Komoberi - Alfalfa, Acacia, Clover, Heather or Multiflower Honey

Henford-On-Bagley - Forest, Clover, Eucalyptus, Dandelion or Multiflower Honey

Newcrest - Sunflower, Manuka, Buckwheat, Multiflower or Macadamia Honey

Oasis Spring - Acacia, Multiflower, Chestnut, Macadamia or Avocado Honey

Sulani - Orange Blossom, Clover, Sage, Thyme or Multiflower Honey

Brindleton Bay - Rosemary, Acacia, Sunflower, Rapeseed or Multiflower Honey

Willow Creek - Blueberry, Multiflower, Lavender, Clover or Linden Honey

Windenburg - Pinetree, Multiflower, Tupelo, Wildflower or Clover Honey

All Other Worlds - Sunflower, Acacia, Clover, Multiflower or Clover Honey

You can find all honey in debug mode, when you search by their name.

Pinetree, Chestnut, Wildflower and Sunflower Honey have energizing effect when consumed. Which means they will increase slightly your Sim's energy.

Clover Honey contains more calories than other honey.

Multiflower, Orange Blossom, Dandelion, Lavender and Linden Honey do NOT help combating sickness. All other honey boost the immune system and helps overcoming sickness if your Sim is sick. The honey collected from the wild beehive has stronger effect for combating sickness.

All honey can be consumed or sold for profit to Health Food Store.

All honey is tagged as sugar, so it can be used in cooking recipes and is fully SCCO compatible!

3. Mead Brewer

Can be found under Outdoor Activities, it costs 350$ and has 11 recolors

Sims with the proper ingredients may use their harvested honey to brew mead for consumption or profit. There are 36 mead types.

The Mead Brewer works off-the-grid and it doesn't break (or it's extremely rare, in my playtest it didin't break at all). To begin brewing first your Sim needs to light up the firewood. Then they will be able to see the interaction to make Mead.

Mead Brewing

Brewing requires Mead Brewing Skill, the higher the skill, the more types of mead a sim can brew. When a brewing cycle has completed the fire in the fireplace will stop automatically and a Large Barrel will be produced. This Barrel can be broken down into 6 Mead Bottles, that can be sold (read below) or opened and consumed. Each bottle contains 6 cups with Mead.

Mead Brewing Skill

This is a brand new 10-level skill, which allows you to turn your Sim into professional Mead Brewer gifting them with this rare skill set.

Mead Brewing skill is required to unlock different Mead types and selling interactions!

To obtain the skill, your Sim can either use the Mead Brewer, or buy skill books from the bookshelf or computer.

At level 1 your Sim can craft only the Classic Mead and as the skill grows more recipes are unlocked.

At level 6 of the Mead Brewing skill, your Sim can sell their mead at Farmer's Market - the profit is multiplied by 2.

At level 10 your Sim can sell their mead to a Liquor Store, the profit is slightly less, but if you have Get Famous, they will gain fame points.

Mead

Each cycle of brewing gives you a barrel with mead.

Each barrel contains 6 bottles of the said Mead, that can be sold or open and drank.
