Before Posting Bugs

Everyday, I see posts on Bugs about things not working, weird things on screen, etc. Before posting topics on Bugs, I urge users to try the following:

Refreshing: Just a simple click of ctrl and R solves 90% of cases. On most posts, after the user refreshes their issue is solved. It only takes a few seconds to do and could save you from an unnecessary post.

If the issue persists, then it makes sense to reach out to the community. In your post you can make note that you already tried refreshing or reopening your map.

Sometimes, when you click anywhere it will open the options for a random device or wire that you had previously interacted with (I would provide a photo, but it only happens occasionally). I found some fixes to these so you don’t need to reload your map. If this happens, do the below:

If this is happening with a device, enter the options, pick any random dropdown setting, change it to something else, then return it to what it was before. Then exit the menu and check if it stopped.

For wires, simply locate the wire, and hover your mouse across it. This surprisingly stops it from appearing whenever you click.

In conclusion, don’t post without trying something

I hope you found this helpful and will try to use this next time you post.

Hey, could you also make a PSA about not giving up? If you can’t figure something out, ask for help, no matter who you are. Man I wish I told myself this 12 hours ago…

I was getting frustrated over not being able to get the Monopoly zones to work, so I rage quit deleted the map. The more I think about it, the more in realize I could have solved my issue with ingenuity and a little help.

Apparently my post has to be approved by a moderator now. Is that a new setting?

When I tried to post that guide it said something along the lines of, “ Your post is pending. Please wait until moderators approve it”
