Here I want to answer the most common questions Fantasy Map Generator users may have. Please feel free to raise a new [issue](https://github.com/Azgaar/Fantasy-Map-Generator/issues) in order to request additional answers.
### I have issues with Generator, what should I do?
First, please try to reproduce the issue on your own. If it's reproducible, please log [an issue](https://github.com/Azgaar/Fantasy-Map-Generator/issues). A lot of issues are caused by browsers, please also try to use another browser (I recommend Chrome)

A lot of issues are caused by browsers, please also try to use another browser. I recommend Chrome as the fastest browser in terms of svg rendering.
### My previously saved map is not working properly. What should I do?
If there is no version conflict, please raise a defect. If your map is obsolete, you may either use an [appropriate version](https://github.com/Azgaar/Fantasy-Map-Generator/wiki/Changelog) on the Generator or re-create a map in a current version. I will try to minimize a version dependency and stabilize the code in the future.

* Save as .png: save the currently displayed map fragment as a raster image. You can edit the file in any raster graphics editor, e.g. in MS Paint
### How can I open a saved .map file?
Open the generator, click on "Load" and select a .map file. No desktop application required, .map is a internal Fantasy Map Generator file format

### How to launch Generator offline?
See [Working offline](https://github.com/Azgaar/Fantasy-Map-Generator/wiki/Working-offline) wiki-page
### I've made so many changes and not I want to edit the heightmap. Is it possible?
No, the general rule states "finalize a Heightmap as a first step". You may roll the map back to a heightmap, but in this case you'll loose all changes made to labels, burgs etc.
See [Working offline](https://github.com/Azgaar/Fantasy-Map-Generator/wiki/Working-offline) wiki-page. Contact me if you want to use a fresh version offline.
### Is there a desktop version?
No, but I consider create a desktop application using Electron. But it's not a priority task

### What about non-English localization?
Localization is not planned, there is not too much text and I almost sure everyone can use the Generator even without English proficiency
Localization is not planned, there is not too much text and I almost sure everyone can use the Generator even without English proficiency. But you can localize the Generator on your own, I support this initiative and can help with a Russian, Belarusian or Ukrainian translation.
### You've mentioned a _Medieval Dynasty_ simulator. What is it?
It's my meta-project. Generally a CK2-style genealogical system with embedded genetics, more like a wedding / dynasty breeding simulator (see the [screenshot](https://i2.wp.com/azgaar.files.wordpress.com/2018/02/screenshot-2018-2-9-dynasty-v0-11.png)). It's on pre-alpha, so Demo is not available.

### How can I help to improve the Generator?
Just use it, log defects and raise enchantments (please use the [issues](https://github.com/Azgaar/Fantasy-Map-Generator/issues) page for both cases). Share the Generator link within your community, post on FB, Twitter etc. A professional help from developers is highly appreciated. It would be also great to get a correction list from an native speaker, my English is poor and know it (you may start a correction right from this page).

We also need a good video-tutorial, please contact me if you have video-blog and want to help.
A professional help from coders / UI designers is also highly appreciated. It would be also great to get a correction list from an native speaker (you may start a correction right from this page).
### Do you accept donations?
No, I don't. Please read the previous answer to find the ways how you can help
