If you cannot find what you are looking for in the
|
||||
[online documentation](index), here's what to do:
|
||||
|
||||
- If you think the documentation is not clear enough and are short on time, fill in our quick little
|
||||
[online form][form] and let us know - no login required. Maybe the docs need to be improved or a new
|
||||
tutorial added! Note that while this form is useful as a suggestion box we cannot answer questions
|
||||
or reply to you. Use the discussion group or chat (linked below) if you want feedback.
|
||||
- If you have trouble with a missing feature or a problem you think is a bug, go to the [issue
|
||||
tracker][issues] and search to see if has been reported/suggested already. If you can't find an
|
||||
existing entry create a new one.
|
||||
- If you think the documentation is not clear enough, create a [documentation ticket](issue).
|
||||
- If you have trouble with a missing feature or a problem you think is a bug, look through the
|
||||
the list of known [issue][issues] if you can't find your issue in the list, make a
|
||||
new one [here](bug-report).
|
||||
- If you need help, want to start a discussion or get some input on something you are working on,
|
||||
make a post to the [discussions group][group] This is technically a 'mailing list', but you don't
|
||||
need to use e-mail; you can post and read all messages just as easily from your browser via the
|
||||
online interface.
|
||||
- If you want more direct discussions with developers and other users, consider dropping into our
|
||||
IRC chat channel [#evennia][chat] on the *Freenode* network. Please note however that you have to be

bridged into the IRC if you prefer that. Please that you have to be

patient if you don't get any response immediately; we are all in very different time zones and many
|
||||
have busy personal lives. So you might have to hang around for a while - you'll get noticed
|

eventually!

### How to *give* Help
|
||||
|

Evennia is a completely non-funded project. It relies on the time donated by its users and
|
||||
developers in order to progress.
|
||||
Evennia is open-source and non-commercial. It relies on the time donated by its users and developers in order to progress.
|
||||
|
||||
The first and easiest way you as a user can help us out is by taking part in [community
|
||||
discussions][group] and by giving feedback on what is good or bad. Report bugs you find and features
|
||||
you lack to our [issue tracker][issues]. Just the simple act of letting developers know you are out
|
||||
there using their program is worth a lot. Generally mentioning and reviewing Evennia elsewhere is
|
||||
also a nice way to spread the word.
|
||||
- Spread the word! If you like Evennia, consider writing a blog post about it.
|
||||
- Take part in the Evennia community! Join the [chat][chat] or [forum][group].
|
||||
- Report problems you find or features you'd like to our [issue tracker](issues).

```
|
||||
|
||||
If you'd like to help develop Evennia more hands-on, here are some ways to get going:
|
||||
|
||||
- Look through our [online documentation wiki]([online documentation wiki](index)) and see if you
|
||||
can help improve or expand the documentation (even small things like fixing typos!). You don't need
|
||||
any particular permissions to edit the wiki.
|
||||
- Look through this [online documentation](index) and see if you can help improve or expand the
|
||||
documentation (even small things like fixing typos!). [See here](Contributing-Docs) on how you
|
||||
contribute to the docs.
|
||||
- Send a message to our [discussion group][group] and/or our [IRC chat][chat] asking about what
|
||||
needs doing, along with what your interests and skills are.
|
||||
- Take a look at our [issue tracker][issues] and see if there's something you feel like taking on.
|
||||
[here are bugs][issues-master] that need fixes. At any given time there may also be some
|
||||
[bounties][issues-bounties] open - these are issues members of the community has put up money to see
|
||||
fixed (if you want to put up a bounty yourself you can do so via our page on
|
||||
[bountysource][bountysource]).
|
||||
[bounties][issues-bounties] open.
|
||||
- Check out the [Contributing](Contributing) page on how to practically contribute with code using
|
||||
github.
|
||||
|
||||
... And finally, if you want to help motivate and support development you can also drop some coins
|
||||
in the developer's cup. You can [make a donation via PayPal][paypal] or, even better, [become an
|
||||
Evennia patron on Patreon][patreon]! This is a great way to tip your hat and show that you
|
||||
appreciate the work done with the server! Finally, if you want to encourage the community to resolve
