How to \_get\_ Help
|
|
===================
|
|
|
|
If you cannot find what you are looking for in the `online
|
|
documentation <Index.html>`_, here's what to do:
|
|
|
|
- If you think the documentation is not clear enough, fill in our quick
|
|
little `online
|
|
form <https://docs.google.com/spreadsheet/viewform?hl=en_US&formkey=dGN0VlJXMWpCT3VHaHpscDEzY1RoZGc6MQ#gid=0>`_
|
|
and say so (no login required). Maybe the docs need to be improved or
|
|
a new tutorial added! Note that this form will help you by helping us
|
|
improve documentation, but you cannot get direct, specific answers
|
|
back from it.
|
|
- If you have trouble with a missing feature or a problem you think is
|
|
a bug, go to the `issue
|
|
tracker <http://code.google.com/p/evennia/issues/list>`_. If you
|
|
can't find the issue already reported, file a new one by filling in
|
|
the handy form.
|
|
- If you need help, want to start a discussion or get input on
|
|
something, make a post in our `forum <http://evennia.com>`_. 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 <http://webchat.freenode.net/?channels=evennia>`_ on the
|
|
*Freenode* network. Please note however 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 lurk about for a while - you'll get noticed eventually!

How to \_give\_ Help
|
|
====================
|
|
|
|
Evennia is a completely un-funded project. 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 <http://groups.google.com/group/evennia/>`_ and by giving
|
|
feedback on what is good or bad. Report bugs you find and features you
|
|
lack to our `issue
|
|
tracker <http://code.google.com/p/evennia/issues/list>`_. Just the
|
|
simple act of letting developers know you are out there using their
|
|
program is worth a lot.
|
|
|
|
If you'd like to help develop Evennia more hands-on, here are some ways
|
|
to get going:
|
|
|
|
- Look through our `online documentation wiki <Index.html>`_ and see if
|
|
you can help improve or expand the documentation (even small things
|
|
like fixing typos!).
|
|
- Send a message to our
|
|
`forum <http://groups.google.com/group/evennia/>`_ and/or our `IRC
|
|
chat <http://webchat.freenode.net/?channels=evennia>`_ asking about
|
|
what needs doing, along with what your interests and skills are.
|
|
- Take a look at our `issue
|
|
tracker <http://code.google.com/p/evennia/issues/list>`_ and see if
|
|
there's something you feel like taking on.
|
|
- Check out the `Contributing <Contributing.html>`_ page on how to
|
|
contribute with code in practice.
|
|
|
|
See `Contributing to Evennia <Contributing.html>`_ for more detailed
|
|
information.
