i'm not sure if this showed up due to an event or what, but i'm not sure what it's about but it seems to act just like a normal light tube
this showed up somewhere in day 15-25, i found it in the evening, possibly somewhere around 19:00 or 20:00

Red light tubes actually fall from trees and explode. There is a small chance that they will not explode (I think it depends on the FPS). It also happened to me that objects that usually fall from trees fall near the poles. And this has existed since the previous version. You may have heard explosions in the distance - those are red tubes falling
yeah i already knew the explosions had some kind of prop it was correlating with and it had a red light, i've spotted one falling on the sleep camera a few times, this is the first time i've managed to find one like this
it could've been from the lag spike the game gives when it saves making it not explode from wherever it dropped, the more confusing thing being i don't think there's any trees near that spot, unless it dropped from the bridge itself which i kind of doubt, though i know a lot of logs in the map can drop stuff like trees do, so maybe it's not impossible
