2.1) Reporting Bugs:
 
---- ---------------
 
To report a bug, please create a Flyspray account and follow the bugs
 
link from our homepage. Please make sure the bug is reproducible and
 
still occurs in the latest daily build or the current SVN version. Also
 
please look through the existing bug reports briefly to see whether the bug
 
is not already known.
 
First of all, check whether the bug is not already known. Do this by looking
 
through the file called 'known-bugs.txt' which is distributed with OpenTTD
 
like this readme.
 

	
 
The Flyspray project page URL is: http://bugs.openttd.org/
 
For tracking our bugs we are using a bug tracker called Flyspray. You can find
 
the tracker at http://bugs.openttd.org/. Before actually reporting take a look
 
through the already reported bugs there to see if the bug is already known.
 
The 'known-bugs.txt' file might be a bit outdated at the moment you are
 
reading it as only bugs known before the release are documented there. Also
 
look through the recently closed bugs.
 

	
 
Please include the following information in your bug report:
 
        - OpenTTD version (PLEASE test the latest SVN/nightly build)
 
        - Bug details, including instructions how to reproduce it
 
        - Platform and compiler (Win32, Linux, FreeBSD, ...)
 
        - Attach a saved game *and* a screenshot if possible
 
        - If this bug only occurred recently please note the last
 
          version without the bug and the first version including
 
          the bug. That way we can fix it quicker by looking at the
 
          changes made.
 
        - Attach crash.dmp, crash.log and crash.sav from the data
 
          directory if they exist.
 
When you are sure it is not already reported you should:
 
 * Make sure you are running a recent version, i.e. run the latest stable or
 
   nightly based on where you found the bug.
 
 * Make sure you are not running a non-official binary, like a patch pack.
 
   When you are playing with a patch pack you should report any bugs to the
 
   forum thread related to that patch pack.
 
 * Make it reproducable for the developers. In other words, create a savegame
 
   in which you can reproduce the issue once loaded. It is very useful to give
 
   us the crash.dmp, crash.sav and crash.log which are created on crashes.
 
 * Check whether the bug is already reported on our bug tracker. This includes
 
   searching for recently closed bug reports as the bug might already be fixed.
 

	
 
After you have done all that you can report the bug. Please include the
 
following information in your bug report:
 
 * OpenTTD version (PLEASE test the latest SVN/nightly build)
 
 * Bug details, including instructions how to reproduce it
 
 * Platform (Win32, Linux, FreeBSD, ...) and compiler (including version) if
 
   you compiled OpenTTD yourself.
 
 * Attach a saved game *and* a screenshot if possible
 
 * If this bug only occurred recently please note the last version without
 
   the bug and the first version including the bug. That way we can fix it
 
   quicker by looking at the changes made.
 
 * Attach crash.dmp, crash.log and crash.sav. These files are usually created
 
   next to your openttd.cfg. The crash handler will tell you the location.
