Safe Beehive Looting

Disperse the swarm with smoke.

This mod allows lit flares to safely disperse bee swarms in PEAK.
Simply light a flare and walk near a beehive or attacking swarm — they'll buzz off peacefully after a short delay. You can even throw one!

🐝 Features

• 🧨 Disperse bees by standing near them with a lit flare
• 🎯 Works on swarms guarding beehives and those already chasing you or a friend!
• 🔥 Automatically triggers the game's built-in dispersal logic
• 🕹️ No keybinds, no configuration needed — just play

🛠️ How It Works

After lighting a flare, checks every second for sixty seconds if the smoke is close enough to beehives to disperse them.

This effect is network-safe and works in multiplayer.

⚙️ Configuration

You can tweak these values in the config file generated after first launch:

BeeCheckRadius (default: 12.0) ➤ How close the smoke must be to a swarm (in Unity units, roughly meters)

SmokeProximityTime (default: 3.0) ➤ How long the smoke must remain within range before bees disperse (in seconds)

🧑‍🤝‍🧑 Compatibility

• ✅ Works in multiplayer
• 🚫 Does not patch or override base game behavior

📦 Installation
