Open Country Update Notes - 1.0.0.2703

Hello, everyone!

We have a big update for you today. You wanted branches? You got it! Equip a tool such as an axe or knife and use a melee attack to harvest branches, logs or leaves from from trees and bushes. We hope this makes those desperate moments in the woods trying to make a shelter a little less desperate!
