Sun berries are kind of rare, but if it's GOOD and WET, you shouldn't have too much trouble finding them.  If you're getting fisher berries, but not sun berries, then maybe you aren't in a good biome where you're looking?

Heh, I'm not really worried about it myself, if they exist they'll appear, somewhere.

I'm cleaning off the map more as curiosity due to the OP's question.

I always embark on good regions by preference.  There's something about unicorn soap and unicorn meat roasts that makes me smile.  Maybe they're both magically good.

Use DFHack, "getplants BERRY_SUN" or somesuch should automatically order all sunberries to be harvested, or tell you if none exist.

Guess I got lucky if sunberries are rare, I just downloaded the new version and found sunberries at my first embark.  I did do a custom embark with a Proficient Plant Gatherer.  Not sure if that makes a difference.

I'm about to abandon this fort anyway though.  Forgot to check for neighbors and I'm all alone.  I miss my gobbos.  Now it's just me and my 87 peacocks.

Otherwise interesting to note.  Anything unique about your location?

Heh. Now that we have .06, sun berries exist again... but now that we have .06, DFHack doesn't work anymore... oh teh lulz.

Glorious, isn't it?  Either way, time will tell, as DFHack is updated and thus, sunberries.

I'm going to count this as confirmation, and my 15 or so plant gatherers can go back to smoothing stone instead of gathering more bloody plants.  Thank you. :)

Much later, but an edit for it, since nothing shows it like a picture...you might have to squint a bit though, since I shrunk it down a touch...
