Posted December 2, 2016 I have issues with beesmoker. I have only fueled it once with a kindling or 1 piece of woodscrap , cant remember which. However i kept forgetting snuff the beesmoker. And it seems that the once fuel never goes out. If it doesnt have the smoking tag , you can just light it. But also if been lit for a few hours , and still have the smoking tag , it acts as a unlit beesmoker. [17:36:09] A device used in beekeeping to calm honey bees.

Posted December 2, 2016 There was a change to bee smokers with the last update and how they are fueled and how they act. Yours may have been an old one that was somehow bugged with the patch. Please keep an eye on it and let me know if it happens either with a brand new bee smoker or with this old one again. When you are not using it, snuff it, then relight it when you want to use it. It will tell you if it needs more fuel. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted December 2, 2016 Fueling the smoker with tar works pretty much as the lantern now, I top it up once in a while if traveling far just to make sure it don't run out. Bee stings hurt, but the poison message if you forget to deal with the sting is a little scary. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
