Multi Theft Auto has loads of areas in which you can help us. In turn, we'll be more than happy to help you get started with any ideas you have, help test them and - if they're good enough - release them to the whole community. This page outlines the key areas you could do something in, of course, there are many things we've not thought of, so think outside the box!

==Web development==
* Create your own system for statistics - using the [[PHP SDK]] as a basis. Join the [https://discord.gg/RygaCSD MTA discord] (or [https://discord.gg/GNN6PRtTnu development discord]) for help.
 
==Documentation==
Before you make changes check out: [[Help:Editing Guidelines|Editing Guidelines]] and [[Help:MTA Wiki Specific Templates|Specific Templates]]
* Finish documentation for [[:Category:Incomplete|Incomplete functions]] - ask in #mta.scripting if you're not sure of something.
* Add examples to [[:Category:Needs Example|functions & events missing examples]] - please '''test''' them, and again, ask if you need help.
* Review and verify [[:Category:Needs Checking|pages that need checking]] - make sure highlighted issues are solved before removing pages from the category.
* Expand the pages that explain [[:Category:Scripting_Concepts|MTA core concepts]].
* Write [https://forum.mtasa.com/forum/123-tutorials/ tutorials] to help new people.
* Translate the wiki pages so people from other countries can get started in MTA too.
* Create documentation for undocumented functions and events [[Undocumented Items]]
* Keep 'changes in' [current work-in-progress: https://wiki.multitheftauto.com/wiki/Changes_in_1.6] for future releases updated.
 
==Quality Assurance==
* [https://github.com/multitheftauto/mtasa-blue/issues Report issues] with the mod, make sure to do a search on the already reported issues first.
* Test and confirm existing reported issues.
* Use the newest build of MTA to detect and report new bugs, by going to 'Settings', 'Advanced', 'Update build type' and choosing 'Nightly' or get it regularly [https://nightly.mtasa.com/ from here].
* Any bugs which are related to a scripting function / event and present in the main release (rather than nightlies), document that bug by adding a [https://wiki.multitheftauto.com/wiki/Help:MTA_Wiki_Specific_Templates warning] to the wiki page to save other scripters a lot of time.
 
==Specific tasks==
* Create a fuzzer to check for crashes in our scripting functions.
