possessed bees kept spawning and eventually crashed our server

[flubbychubby]

I summoned a possessed bee, killed one, but more kept spawning. Then I finally got the drops. But then 100+ more bees spawned and it crashed the server. They ended up using command /kill and it turned out that over 8000+ bees were spawned.

To Reproduce
Steps to reproduce the behavior:

1. Summon Possessed Bee
2. Kill the bees
3. Hope that 8000 bees don't spawn
4. See error

Expected behavior
Thought I just had to kill one angry bee.

Screenshots
Couldn't take a screenshot because PC froze.

Hmm I assume this is related to the SPAWN_REINFORCEMENTS_CHANCE that possessed bees use (like zombies), but the value is very low (6% per hit).

The crash seems related to the_bumblezone which may be modifying bee stuff, but I am not sure how it would cause that.

Is this a reproducible issue in a) Craftoria and b) Just occultism + dependencies?

I just had the same problem, so maybe this helps - they spawned their reinforcements after taking damage, not after death and since i was dumb enough to use a fire spell from ars nouveau that spread fire everywhere, they just kept multiplying and nearly crashed our small server.

since i have no admin perms I couldn't use a /kill command to get rid of them, but I found another solution, which could help someone in similar circumstances - I used the Disintegration ritual from ars nouveau to instakill them without actually inflicting any damage that could trigger the reinforcements.

Was this also in Craftoria?
