# How to Report a Bug or Issue Effectively

Guidelines for submitting clear and helpful bug reports to the FNLB team so they can resolve issues quickly.

## Before You Report

1. **Check for existing issues:** Look in the **#🛟・help-and-questions** or **#🧪・suggestions-and-bugs** channel on Discord to see if your issue is already known.
2. **Restart and retry:** Often, restarting Fortnite and the FNLB App can resolve temporary glitches.
3. **Gather information:** Note what you were doing, any error messages, and the time the issue occurred.

## Essential Information for Your Report

A good report should include:
- **Your Platform:** (e.g., PC, PlayStation, Xbox).
- **Bot Name:** The specific bot you were using.
- **Clear Steps:** The exact actions that led to the bug.
- **Expected vs. Actual Result:** What you thought would happen vs. what actually happened.
- **Screenshots/Videos:** If possible, these are extremely helpful.

## Submitting Your Report

The best place to submit a bug report is in the dedicated **#🧪・suggestions-and-bugs** channel on the [FNLB Discord](https://fnlb.net/discord). Post your gathered information clearly and concisely. Avoid sending duplicate reports, as this slows down the triage process for the development team.
