Hi everyone!


If you encounter any bugs while playing the Stadia OpenDev, please report them in this subforum using the following template:

Below, I'll add more details for those who want it.




-------------------------------------------------------


1. Bug summary / Thread Title

If you're making a new thread, the bug summary should be the title of your thread, if it's not a new thread, include it above the rest of the bug report.

In your bug summary, you should try to explain the bug in a single sentence, as briefly as you can.

Please only add to a thread if you believe you have run into the same bug. Otherwise start a new thread, but try to keep the summary short and clear.



2. Bug description

The bug description is here to complete the information given in the summary: you can add more detail, explain what are the items within the wide terms you used (ex: if you say "[...] certain technologies [...]" in your summary, you can expand in the description by detailing "Bronze Working, Irrigation" for example.)


You can consider the bug description as a way to clear any ambiguity in your summary.


3. Steps to reproduce

This is a step by step guide to help the poor soul trying to fix the bug. It needs to list everything relevant in order to reproduce your bug.

The clearer and more detailed your steps to reproduce are, the more likely we'll be able to reproduce the issue from scratch.


(Also, bug reports usually have no-brainer steps like "Start the game", "Load a save or start a new game". Unless it's relevant to your issue, I guess you guys can spare yourself the trouble of including those steps)


4. Reproducibility

It is a score, usually out of 5, that shows how consistent the problem is.

Here's a little rundown if the different "Reproducibility":


5/5 - Consistent, happens every time with the described steps and even in other cases that might not be included in the report

4/5 - Mostly consistent, easy to reproduce but sometimes it doesn't happen

3/5 - Mostly inconsistent, feels like it happens only half of the time. At this point, it might be wise to reevaluate the steps to reproduce

2/5 - Inconsistent, it happens... sometimes. At this point, the steps to reproduce are not going to be very helpful

1/5 - Very inconsistent, basically it's either random or the steps to reproduce aren't correct

Once - It happened once. Never managed to reproduce.


5. Expected behavior

This might be the most tricky part for you guys since in some cases you can only guess what the expected behavior is.

This section is usually the part you use to describe what you think is supposed to happen and how it differs of the current state of things.


6. Notes

This is the place to shove any additional information or remark that didn't feel like it belonged anywhere else.


7. Attachments /!\

Don't forget to attach useful files if you feel like they are relevant.

  • Screenshots (you can edit them to add a beautiful red circle made on MS Paint to help us identify the issue)
  • Video If you want to go the extra mile, feel free to share a brief video of the issue, e.g. by uploading it unlisted on youtube.



!-- If your upload is larger than 4MB, there's a chance you'll encounter an error. Either compress the files into a .zip or a similar archive format (.7z / .rar) --!




Thanks for your help!
