Hello Minecraft Forum,
I've been playing around with bees, that are introduced in the Forestry mod, and automating my apiaries with Applied Energistics. I am running FTB Ultimate by the way. So, here is the system:
So, the bees get piped out of the Ender chest (that is connected to my Bee Base, where all my bees are stored), and into a regular chest. That chest is connected to an ME Import Bus, so my ME Network sucks out all the bees piped into the chest.
My ME Network is then connected to some ME Export Buses that are connected to the apiaries.
So, in theory, bees that come into my ME system will be exported into the bees respective apiaries (decided by the labels I have given to the Export buses, right? No, and that is the problem I need a solution to. It seems like the only bees that get exported into the apiaries are the exact ones I used to label the Export Buses.
This apiary is connected to the same Export Bus as above, but has no bees in it, even though the same species of bees are in my ME Network.
Thanks for your help guys! I now we'll think of something.
Will the Fuzzy Export Bus work with bees? I know it will allow different types of ore if they are equivalent in the ore dictionary. Not sure if it will work with the dfferent stats of bees.
I remember that Direwolf20 ran in the same problem while using AE for automating apiaries. The export bus kept looking for bees with the exact same stats, not just species. He solved it by using a different export bus type, but I forgot the details on what. I saw it in one of his season 5 SMP episodes on youtube.
If nothing works you can always fall back to apiarist pipes.
Came across this topic and not sure that anyone answered it. You have to set the mode to "ignore damage" on the bus if you want AE to ignore gene mutations on your bees.

It seems like a couple of people may have hit it before i did, but they are all correct. The bees change with each generation so you need to do anything you can to generalize those busses, or use the fuzzy bus.
