Topic, Scripting School - For those who want to make Games

  pro italics there birjo ;D

  Oh my, what great help, huh?

My point is, writing in short (generally 50-100 character) messages will do no good. Look up a tutorial, and make sure it's at [i]least[/i] 15 pages long. If there's something you cannot understand, ask a live tutor. Don't learn directly from a live tutor.

  Birjo, I was going on etherpad with them actually...

  nah GIS, trial and error is a great way of experimenting with something you dont know how it works...

oh, and what birjo said, but with a 'come back in 3 years when you know proper math' argument added to it...you seriously cant do this without ayt least a full understanding of GCSE maths, heck some of my things needed AS maths, but thats just the little individual lines buried in GCSE maths...

  I heard by a lot of people that your best teacher when it comes to scripting are books.

  Manufan, relying on bashing the other person for grammatical errors, or talking trash to them for no apparent reason at all, in response to a pretty clear and thought out post makes you look like the immature person in the argument. Noone likes getting criticised, but it's part of living and learning, and quite frankly, most of the criticism is true.

You can't just learn "scripting" (just a heads up, scripting is Javascript, etc., programminging is Java, Actionscript etc.) through PM's. Learning programming is something that requires an entirely new mindset, and that takes time and excellent explanations. Having someone to fall back on, and ask questions is always a good thing, but relying solely on a live tutor is a bad idea.

  Well, it happens sometimes that humans make typos.

  And yet he can't read either.

"The amount of un-needed, horrible messages has risen on their innocent topics, though the people are right. But now they're not."

Clearer now?

  He didn't stir it up. He just stated his opinion.

  MiF still stirs up trouble.

  However manufan, you fell to a point deeper than MiF did.

  11, That's almost the same!

  Nope. You have to get your facts right GIS. I'm not ten.

@MIF: Also, you have level limitations, I shed those a year ago, so you aren't exactly hot stuff either.

  Says someone who is 10 as well.

  And they don't pay the fees either! >:O

@MIF: You're ten, quit trying to be smart in front of me. Just 'cause you hit the big one-zero doesn't mean you can arse me around.

  holy shit its AK...oh, and for the record my teaching style is "here have this book" *leaves* and it seems to have worked well... :P

  Hmmmm... don't you think someone with more experience should be teaching this? O.O

Nachos, the best teachers on BL would be Gecko and MARC. Possibly JP, but he's busy most of the time. I suggest also using tutorials. :P

  Hey.. I am not going to make a game.. But I would like to learn how so that in the future I could make one.. Could someone teach me.. :)

  I am ashamed that my long, well thought-out message was ignored that quickly.

  I know Hex.

  manufan AS2 uses strings...youre using AS2, so you cant possibly explain ByteArrays...

  Why to say f**ked, man what a world!

  Yep, he's f**ked if he doesn't know what a ByteArray is.

  Jasper, I hope you do know how to make the basic game, right? Else directly trying to make the editor won't be easy...

  You have to help how to make it XD

  No. I will help you, NOT make it. :)

  Fine! Thank you, I need a raster, where you can put blocks in.

  Yep, I can help you with that in AS3, I need Hex for AS2.

  Manufan, i need your help! I need to have an editor!

  @MIF10: You have a point. But that's what I said, the insulting of n00bs is correct, but not very nice.
