Hotfixes

• Fixed an issue causing the game to crash after lumbering trees
  
• Made crafting UI slightly easier to read
  

[h3]Patch 0.5.1.3 changes the way how players gather ores and lumber. We thought that the old system where players go next to ores/trees and presses a key for automated gathering was boring and not enjoyable so now players can wield their axes and pickaxes and hit the nodes for faster and more enjoyable way to gather resources. Players can also use their own weapons for gathering, but this is significantly a lot slower way.

We also made the game much more newcomer friendly. Now when players approach crafting tables or quest givers they will display their names above them for easier navigation, so no more need to hug the NPC:s to see who is who!
