Don't want to hassle...what do I do when I find bugs?

So my girls are now playing on one of the latest dev builds. Please note I do NOT play minecraft so I can barely understand them.

They tell me that some things are "broken". Can't spawn this, stuff disappears, etc.

I understand this is a work in progress and I do not want to hassle the folks doing this great work.

So should i assume that anything they find is "known" and will be fixed? Or should I be reporting each of these as a ticket?

Feel free to report them to the issue tracker on github or the issues tab here in the forums I'd say.

well firstly i will assume you mean PM dev build NOT MCPE dev build
if you encounter any bug and have spare time please firstly look it up if is have been reported, only report when it is not reported

I would say that everything missing is known (blocks, items etc....).

Placing unknown blocks should work right? [with mods at least]

If my post was helpful you, or you like it, you might want to drop a like! If not, I'd be happy to know what I did wrong.

Look up where? There are only 9 issues in Github. Do you mean look up here?

Is there a place w/ the known issues so I don't waste everyone's time reporting?

Is this something coming in core or will it be provided in a module/plugin? Again, sorry for the ignorance, I'm rapidly trying to learn the terminology.

They are not known issues. They are simply planned and not yet implemented.

In the core, I believe.

iirc maybe the above might probably be correct perhaps unless it's wrong afaik absolutely no warranties understand this message at your own risk
Sorry for my bad English, although this sentence is perfectly grammatically correct.
No offense intended; if it offends you you're an idiot, so read it again and again until it doesn't offend you anymore.

Awesome! Is there a way for you/whomever to share that list? Not the deadlines nor the order, just the list, so we don't bring them up again?

I think... All physics (including block mechanisms like redstone, AI, etc.) mechanisms that should exist in vanilla MCPE server

ALL THE THINGS! But we don't/can't work full-time on this, so naturally we aren't as fast as the MCPE devs.

Right now thinking about feature implementation is low priority. With the way Mojang are rolling updates out at the moment, we have our hands full supporting the new game versions. I've just spent the better part of 5 days writing a new chunks implementation to support 0.17. Only just got it working yesterday, but resulting server-side performance is awful. Needs lots of improvements.

BUT, hopefully they might slow down after 1.0 is out (I really hope so), so that we can get down to some of the cool stuff that everybody wants, like redstone, mobs, etc. I was in fact already looking forward to getting away from the mess that was 0.16 and doing some feature implementation, but then less than a month later, here is 1.0 beta.

I totally get it and I really appreciate all the work you're doing. Just trying to set my girls' expectations. They are excited to play w/ their friends but when "things" don't work I need them to know why. We may just pay for private access until you get things sorted...I know you're working on it as much as you can.

Must be frustrating to not be able to get to feature because MCPE is iterating so fast.

We're currently not really focusing on features. We could probably fast hack everything in, but we don't want to end up with a codebase that is unprogrammable on. The team is currently trying to clean up PM's codebase and make things more modular, to be able to (after all the cleaning) implement features much faster.

Makes perfect sense. I was a dev in a past life and I get it.

Keep up the great work!

On the other side, you should probably continue to 'annoy' the Team a bit, in order to make them feel that they can't just do optimisation forever. It is an important part, but if users start to turn away due to no apparent 'progress', you've overdone it

I wish I could help...perhaps I'll start digging in to the code and seeing what I an do.

Yes, it really is. I'm glad you understand... a lot of people don't.

i dont really know what you mean by this PM have no private access you can use the dev build but that is as latest as you can get
if you mean realms then worth a shot if you enjoy using vanilla survival gameplay
