How and what kind of bugs should we report?

Post by Lagoon »

Oki, so, I've found the website where I can report bugs and stuff which is http://www.l2jdp.com/trac/newticket (please correct me if I'm wrong).

There I give a description and then fill in various info. So ehm... What does it all stand for?

"Type: Defect/Task/Enhancement" for example. I' guessing "defect" is if it's a bug.

Then there's Priority. How do you guys value those things? I'm guessing that things that causes the game to crash are highest but what about for example quests that tell you to go talk to a NPC named.. For example Peter just to get there and realise the name's Poitur or something. Is that normal or maybe low priority?

I think I've understood component so gonna skip that one :D

Severity's interresting and sort of makes me wonder why the "Priority" option's there :?

And then we got... Geodata! What does it stand for? I mean, when filling in the bug report. I'm using Geodata, got it set to 2 in the config but this goes from disabled up til 25 so not sure what to pick :?

And finally, what kinda stuff would you guys like us to report?
Serious issues and exploits? Spelling errors? Mobs using spells they're not using in retail or simply not using the spells they're supposed to?

There are optional settings coming with the dp, two of them are champion mobs and XP through crafting. I don't think either of em excist in retail but still there are a few interresting parts with em (Quest mobs spawning as champions, craft XP totally ignoring player level and just comparing create item skill level for example).
Is that something I should report? :)

Sorry for the silly questions, playing on a private server with some friends and every now and then they stumble on something so I'm just curious weither I should forward it or not :wink:
