# Mutation Data

Mutations are the repurposing of a vanilla mechanic: <mark style="color:orange;">pollination effect</mark>. When a bee pollinates a flower and is returning to a hive, any flower it flies over has a chance to be fertilized (have a growth tick applied to it). It can do this up to 10 times before it needs to visit a hive to reset the counter.&#x20;

Mutations reuse the vanilla mechanic by allowing bees to transform one object into another. The bee would simply fly over a target `item|block|fluid|entity` and the target would be transformed into different `item|block|fluid|entity`.

The mutation customization component simply contains the recipe ID for the mutations which the bee can perform and the mutation limit.

{% code title="Template:" %}

```json
"resourcefulbees:mutation/v1": {
  "count": 5,
  "mutation": "resourcefulbees:mutations/template"
}
```

{% endcode %}
