So I've been making a modpack for myself lately and one of my favorite things to do in the game is breed bees. So I was fooling around with compatibility and saw that some of the Pam's HarvestCraft IDs took over some bee products such as honey drops and beeswax. Now this isn't the question I wanted to ask, I know how to change configs and stuff to fix that. However it really made me interested if it's possible to change what bees can produce. So for instance could I edit a lapis bee to also give iron grains? Or change the diamandi bee to give full diamonds instead of shards? How would this work? If anybody has a clue please tell me! I'd love to change some bees :)

This seems to happen as a result of the order in which mods load. There was a conflict and only one of them gets loaded (I think the first one). However I believe minetweaker lets you mess with some stuff, but not sure about bees specifically.

You are more likely to break things than to have it turn out the way you like if you use this exploit. If I were trying to make it happen, I would make the item ID the same as the thing I want to replace (replacement would be universal across the whole world) and then make sure the mod that should take presidence loaded in the right order in relation to extra bees.

Honestly? Not sure. Nor am I sure that Pams actually overwrites forestry stuff so much as uses Ore Dictionary support in it's recipes(as does forestry for many things) and registers it's honey and wax the same way as forestry.
Also conflicts tend to resolve as last loaded wins.
