# Submap testing process
First make sure you have a .map file. To replicate the error, goteguru needs the .map file and instructions of what you did.
To make the exact submap position easier, we need to use a fixed zoom value instead of rolling the mouse wheel. A fixed zoom can be done by pressing the digits at the top, from 2 to 9 to provide 2x to 9x zoom, or setting the scale parameter in the URL.
By default, pressing a digit or setting the scale parameter will zoom to the center of the map. If you want a submap of a different location, you have to specify the x/y coordinates as a URL parameter as well.
For testing, it may be easier to keep loading the same .map file automatically. First save the map as a .map file, then save it to the browser console (F6).
Under Options, select "Open last saved map" under "Onload behaviour".
To repeatedly choose the same area, use the map URL parameters:
https://goteguru.github.io/Fantasy-Map-Generator/?scale=5
If you have a x/y position other than the centre, use:
https://goteguru.github.io/Fantasy-Map-Generator/?scale=5&x=100&y=200
where 100 and 200 are your x/y position to zoom to.
Once you have the area and zoom correct, load your map, go to Tools, and click Submap at the bottom.
If it gives any problems, please copy/paste any errors from the browser console (F12, console tab), and also give the .map file and a description of the error and the URL parameters you used.
