Bow and Arrow: How to shoot?
Simple question, how do I shoot the bow?

I've shot it before with a random series of clicks, however I have yet to figure out how to shoot it normally. Anyone know?

Hold right click to charge/aim, left click to fire when charged. An arrow is required. Spears work the same for throwing.

I believe it's covered in the patch notes.

Thank-you! Now that I can shoot this bow, I can kill that boar. Yes, it is covered in the patch notes, however I couldn't seem to find set instructions for their use.

I really dont like the bow. If they made a better one as an upgrade like the axes and other tools that would be much better.

I generally stick with crude spears and speargun arrows. They are the cheapest to make. it only takes like 8-10 spears (depending on your accuracy) to kill the tiger sharks easily. Yeah the arrows can stack but the bow does break eventually and thats just more materials to make that as well and an extra inveentory slot.

lol I just chase the silly boars with my crude axe and melee them a few times!! He moves way too fast to throw spears at or shoot arrows. At least thats my opinion. I just dont like potentially wasting the arrows when they break after hitting rocks.

Do you mean the mac has a one-button mouse? You can change this :) You need to go into your preferences and alter your mouse controls. Macs can work a two-button mouse, and most macs come with a mouse that operates like a two-button mouse, you just have to turn it on in the mouse settings. My mac is pretty old, so maybe things have changed, but it should be possible.
