Food poisoning from berries question
Post Flair (click to view more posts with a particular flair)
Post Body

I should preface by saying I always play the game on rough with randy as storyteller and a lone survivor start, is my RNG just terrible? because every game, without failure I seem to get food poisoning from berries within the first 3 days, it's usually the cause of all of my deaths, i'll get food poisoning and then just to spite me randy throws a raid or manhunter at me. My current game I'm 11 days in and I've already gotten food poisoning 3 times with my one colonist with a berry only diet. This isn't particularly new or uncommon to me, I have over 2000 hours in the game and food poisoning is the bane of my existence. What I don't understand is according to the wiki, I should be rolling a 50 sided dice every time I get food poisoning from berries (2%), but it feels like i'm flipping a coin every time my pawn picks up a pile of berries.

My question is, how is the food poisoning chance for stacked foods actually calculated? is eating 1 berry the same food poison chance as 20 berries? or does the food poisoning chance roll for every berry in the stack? It's entirely possible I just get unlucky or even have some kind of mod conflict but I would love to know how the stacked food poison chance works.

*scratch that, 4 times. First berries after recovering lol instantly back to slugging around turning my base green.
