Hi. First time poster here. Just pre-ordered and logged in a day or so ago and whilst i've worked some things out others make no sense yet.

1) I killed a couple of raccoons but all i seemed to be able to get off them was skin and bones and various other parts for crafting. I didn't seem to be able to turn them into food of any sort. Do you need a special skill? Also animals seem rare. Is it viable to hunt them atm?

2) Caught a fish but can't seem to eat it or do anything to it. Do i need a skill to do this?

3) Managed to build a fire (to try and cook the fish). However i can't light it without a flint which i don't have. Is there some NPC vendor to buy it from or some type of rock to get it from?

4) I picked Leathercrafting and whilst i have recipes i don't have all the tools. I need a needle i think to actually make stuff. Is there a NPC vendor around to buy one or something?
