<div id="content">
<p>This page will walk you through fixing the most common issues that users have playing Sandboxels.</p>
<h2>BEFORE YOU READ</h2>
<p>Ensure that you are playing on the official website, <a href="https://sandboxels.R74n.com/">sandboxels.R74n.com</a>. We cannot ensure it will work elsewhere.</p>
<p>Most issues are with mods, which are created by the community and not fixed by the Sandboxels developer.</p>
<p>Even if you don't remember enabling a mod, clear them with the following steps:</p>
<ol>
<li>Open <a href="https://sandboxels.R74n.com/">Sandboxels</a>.</li>
<li>Find and press the Settings button at the end of the toolbar.</li>
<li>Scroll to the bottom of the Settings, and press the Clear Mods button.</li>
<li>Hit "OK" and make sure your webpage refreshes.</li>
</ol>
<p>If you've done all of this and it hasn't fixed it, please find your issue below.</p>
<h2>Loading screen takes forever</h2>
<p>The loading screen should not last more than a few seconds. This means that something has crashed the webpage before it could finish loading.</p>
<p>This is usually because of a mod, so follow the steps above.</p>
<p>If you've done those steps, it may be that you are using an unsupported or outdated browser. Try a different one, like Google Chrome or Microsoft Edge.</p>

<h2>Screen flickers or stays black unless paused</h2>
<p>The canvas may flicker or disappear if an error occurs when trying to simulate certain pixels.</p>
<p>Pausing should fix this temporarily, during which you can delete the offending pixels, or follow the steps above to uninstall any mods.</p>
<h2>Cannot access webpage</h2>
<p>If you cannot access the official <a href="https://sandboxels.R74n.com/">Sandboxels website</a>, it could be one of a few things.</p>
<p>Your network connection may be unstable, make sure you are connected to the Internet with Wi-Fi or something else.</p>
<p>Your school or employer may be blocking the website. It would be best to contact them explaining its educational and scientific uses.</p>
<p>While unlikely, there could also be an outage in one of the services we use.</p>
