Add more Drone Bees if you fall below 6. Bees will occasionally die, this is normal, add more Drone Bees if you fall below 6. Slowly your Bee Keep will fill with Worker Bees.

Each time a Fruit Tree ripens it gain up to 10% of the Purity difference between the Fruit Tree and your Bee Skep. This gain is reduced if you have less than 60k Worker Bees. CAUTION: Opening a a Bee Skep will cause you to get stung. The severity of the sting is proportionate to the number of Worker Bees in the Bee Skep; generally between 5-15 Blood damage. Fruit Purity Each Everbloom that a Fruit Tree ripes with a Bee Skep in range, will cause your Fruit Tree to gain 10% of the difference between the Fruit Tree's Purity and the Purity of Bee Skep that pollinates it, multiplied by the percent fill of your 60,000 Worker Bees. For instance, if your Fruit Tree is at 0% Purity and your Bee Skep at 90% filled with 30k Worker Bees your Fruit Tree will gain 4.5% (90% x 50% (60k/30k). The Purity of a Bee Skep is equal to the average Purity of the Hay used in it's How to Make Honey Place 1x Queen Bee and 6 to 10x Drone Bees in a Bee Skep.

Building Structures Selecting a structure from the build menu or its sub-menus will place a Building Blueprint Sign at the position of the cursor and then clicking a valid building location on the ground will place the sign and open a window prompting the player to deposit the necessary materials and build the structure. Each material is followed by a series of three numbers. The first indicates how many of that resource are needed but have not been deposited. The second number indicates how many of that resource have been deposited but have not been built into the structure. The third number indicates how many of that resource have been built into the structure. Players can take their time building structures by depositing and committing resources to the build sign by clicking the "build" button. The character will build as much of the structure as they can with the available resources. They can return with more resources in the future. Note that if no resources are deposited, the build sign will disappear when the player walks away. If resources are deposited, but the player hasn't built them into the structure, the uncommitted resources will slowly disappear over time. This is to combat players using build signs as cheap and overpowered storage containers they can deposit and retrieve resources from.
