DFHack has several ways to get help online, including:
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
- The `DFHack Discord server <https://dfhack.org/discord>`__
|
||
|
|
- The ``#dfhack`` IRC channel on `Libera <https://libera.chat/>`__
|
||
|
|
- GitHub:
|
||
|
|
- for bugs, use the :issue:`issue tracker <>`
|
||
|
|
- for more open-ended questions, use the `discussion board
|
||
|
|
<https://github.com/DFHack/dfhack/discussions>`__. Note that this is a
|
||
|
|
relatively-new feature as of 2021, but maintainers should still be
|
||
|
|
notified of any discussions here.
|
||
|
|
- The `DFHack thread on the Bay 12 Forum <https://dfhack.org/bay12>`__
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Some additional, but less DFHack-specific, places where questions may be answered include:
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
- The `/r/dwarffortress <https://dwarffortress.reddit.com>`_ questions thread on Reddit
|
||
|
|
- If you are using a starter pack, the relevant thread on the `Bay 12 Forum <http://www.bay12forums.com/smf/index.php?board=2.0>`__ -
|
||
|
|
see the :wiki:`DF Wiki <Utility:Lazy_Newb_Pack>` for a list of these threads
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
When reaching out to any support channels regarding problems with DFHack, please
|
||
|
|
remember to provide enough details for others to identify the issue. For
|
||
|
|
instance, specific error messages (copied text or screenshots) are helpful, as
|
||
|
|
well as any steps you can follow to reproduce the problem. Sometimes, log output
|
||
|
|
from ``stderr.log`` in the DF folder can point to the cause of issues as well.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Some common questions may also be answered in documentation, including:

||
