This is not the worst of anything for sure.
But it seems since the update, apple trees are rolling all 0s on its percentage to drop (even in orchards mind you)
At first i thought it was just terrible like. Took a death. Spawned near the cap got to the spot with of lumber mill that has an Orchard and not a single tree had spawned an apple on the ground
Got lucky and got to the lumber mill and that massive orchard. Not a single apple either.
As I said not the worst of things for sure. But for fresh spawn that's unlucky enough to not find a can opener or a knife I could see this being a harsh bug. Luckily I met up with my partner and was saved legitimately on the brink of death but i could see this causing grief to those less fortunate
