⚓ Ship Holds - Home Below Deck¶
I'm excited to roll out the first version of something I've wanted in UO since I first signed up for the beta back in the 90's -- the ability to go in your ship's hold, store stuff down there, and set up a "home away from home."

🐝 Beekeeping¶
- Fixed potion icons to align with the correct type on the beehive gump
- After you place a beehive, it will be in a Dormant mode, and you can chop it to get the deed back to move it
- Double-clicking the hive activates it, and you can no longer chop it down
- You can move an active hive, by standing in the spot you want to move it to in your house. This does increase by 4 hours the next check time, since moving a beehive is very disruptive to bees
- If you want to destroy a hive, you need to use the button in the gump, unless it's empty/dead
- The hive check is now a true 24 hours
- Honey not identified after 3 attempts will be identified as wild flower or clover
- Slight adjustment to the min/max values of some honey orders
🏠 New House Styles¶
Three new houses are available:
- A brown keep, facing south, with a northeast courtyard with 2 recall spots, fencing, and 'secret' door
- A gray keep, facing east, with a courtyard in the southwest with 1 recall spot, and a 'secret' door
- A three story small tower, this one facing east
