Reporting Bugs

What to do when you find a bug

Why Bugs are Common

Isleward is a game under development. This means that new things are constantly being developed. The developer Big Bad Waffle makes new things daily. Code can interact in unexpected ways, and some bugs may be triggered only under specific circumstances, and thus not caught before updates are released. Consequently, we need YOU to help catch bugs!

What should I do if I find a bug?

First, if there are other players online, it may be a good idea to confirm through the chat that the bug you have found is genuine, and not already known.

If you have found a new bug, or others are not online, there are currently two main ways to report bugs. One way is to report on the Isleward Discord. Go to #Isleward and say the bug. Someone will eventually report your bug. The other way, is to report the bug through Gitlab. Make an account and create an issue.

If you are lucky enough in game to see the developer, talking with him may result in him reporting the bug for you. Some people in game may also report the bug for as well. Finally, an in-game method of reporting is currently being developed, and may be released in the future.

Good luck catching bugs!
