How to Report a Bug

Marko edited this page Jan 29, 2023 · 3 revisions

When you encounter a bug, I’m going to need to reproduce the bug in order to be able to fix it. If the bug report simply states “X isn’t working,” chance are that I can’t reproduce the bug because I’m on a different setup and I’m probably using the system a bit differently. Being the developer, every step I need to make within the system makes perfect sense to me, but I can’t really anticipate what you are doing with the system (which, in general, is a beautiful thing; the system is used creatively and that’s awesome). So in order to provide me with the information I need, please answer the following questions:

  1. What browser are you and the player using?
  2. How are you hosting?
  3. What version of Foundry are you using?
  4. What version of the Cypher system are you using?
  5. What isn’t working? What are you trying to accomplish? What are you expecting to happen? What is actually happening? Please be as specific as possible.
  6. What are the exact steps you or your player can take to reproduce the behavior, starting from logging into Foundry? This means every mouse click.
  7. What have you tried to fix the behavior? Common strategies are reloading Foundry, restarting the server, restarting the browser, and clearing the cache (ctrl-F5).
  8. Is there an error in the console (F12)?
  9. If applicable, can you provide a screenshot?

You can report bugs here on GitHub or in the bug report channel on Discord.

Thanks!
