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 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
|
|
"http://webchat.freenode.net/?channels
|
|
evennia">#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 non-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
|
|
"http://webchat.freenode.net/?channels
|
|
evennia">IRC chat 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.
|
|
|
|
In either case, you may find documentation useful to developers in the
|
|
`Developer Central <DeveloperCentral.html>`_.
