I have been looking for an ash tree for 3 hours in experimental. I have meat items to make a fireplace and light a fire but cannot cook because I cannot find an ash tree. Why is ash so important, surely a stick from any tree will do.

I have all this meat in my inventory and I am still living off apples. Perhaps we could have a few more ash trees or you could allow us to cook with other sticks.

Hi wilbur

I generally don't get a few things about survival mechanics in the game. Like why you would need to actually have an axe to chop down an ashwood stick, why won't a hacksaw or machete do the same. We're talking about a stick!

I also would like to see frying meat on rocks, and not have to carry a pot or pan or cooking tripod around with me.

I think the devs should actually spend two weeks on a survival holiday and THEN work on the game mechanics.
