Hunting Bow

Overview
The Hunting Bow is the primary ranged weapon used by Natives and a popular weapon for hunters. The cheap cost and deadly potential of the hunting bow make it a primary choice for players who can't afford the luxury of a flintlock based weapon. Unlike the firearms, the hunting bow has a quick reload time, cost effective ammunition (arrows), and a longer range than a rifle.

The bow can be crafted by natives at the cost of 3 Tree Logs or bought at almost any merchant for 10 pounds. Despite its cheap price, the hunting bow deals 0-70 damage, depending on the length of time used to draw back the arrow, to a players health.

Usage
In order to draw the Hunting Bow back for a shot, the player must firsts press "Q" to aim. While aiming the player's movement is significantly decreased and their camera zooms in slightly. To stop aiming, simply press "Q" again.

After aiming, the player is then able to draw back an arrow by holding down left click. The longer the shot is drawn the more velocity the arrow will have. Players can tell when the shot has been fully charged either by listening to the audio or watching as the tip of the arrow stops right before touching the handle of the bow. Once fully drawn back, the player can then shoot the arrow by releasing the left mouse button. A hitmark sound will play if the arrow hits a player or an animal.
