Chat, Friends list, Discord linking

• Discord now powers the in-game chat.

World

• Fixed an issue where oak trees were missing in specific biomes. Oaks have replaced some beech trees in the Rolling Hills and the Old Forest biome. This is a quick patch to help with the resource dependencies, and we’d like to do a more thorough pass next time there’s an opportunity to do a full world rebuild. Note: there’s a very small risk that some of the oaks will clip through some player buildings since the oaks are bigger than the beech trees.
