>**Please read this before creating an Issue or a PullRequest!** Issues/PR's that don't follow these instructions will be closed!<br>

## Reporting a Bug
The first thing you need to do, is to make sure what you found is actually a bug:<br>
- A bug is an unintended behaviour of an implemented feature.
BlueMap is not "done", there are quite a lot of features missing!
So, if something doesn't work because it is not implemented yet, its not a bug.
If you are not sure, you can briefly ask about it in our [Discord](https://discord.gg/zmkyJa3) before creating an Issue. :)
- Make sure you tested it well enough to be sure it's not an issue on your end. If something doesn't work for you but for everyone else, its probably **not** a bug!
Also, please make sure noone else has already reported the same or a very similar bug!
If you have additional information for an existing bug-report, you can add a comment to the already existing Issue :)
To report your bug, please open a [new Issue](https://github.com/BlueMap-Minecraft/BlueMap/issues/new?template=bug_report.md) with the `Bug report`-template and follow these guidlines:
### Guidlines for a good Bug-Issue
**A short, informative Title**<br>
Your Issue should have a short but informative title, which makes it possible to distinquish it from- and easily recognize it in-between- other Issues.
If someone else finds the same bug, they should be able to find your Issue only based on the title!
**A detailed description**<br>
Describe your bug in as much detail as possible:
- What did you do before it happened? (How can the bug be reproduced?)
- What did you expect to happen?
- What happened instead?
- CONTEXT!!
- The exact BlueMap-Version (e.g. the name of the used .jar file)
- The used os and platform (Windows/Linux, Spigot/Paper/Forge/Fabric/Sponge)
- Has the world been generated using any minecraft-mods?
- etc..
- Is there a log- or a config-file that might help? Include it.
- Maybe add a screenshot or video for illustration.
**Well formatted and structured**<br>
Make sure your Issue is easy to read and not a mess:
- Use paragraphs to structure your issue.
- Use [Markdown](https://guides.github.com/features/mastering-markdown/) to add headings and formatting.
- Use codeblocks for log-snippets.
- Upload full logs as file-attachments or use a paste-site like [GitHub Gists](https://gist.github.com/) or [Pastebin](https://pastebin.com/).
**One Issue, one bug**<br>
Create a separate Issue for each bug you find! Issues that contain more than one bug will be closed!
