Return of the Mr. Wallet's Blockland Scripting Class

[Mr. Wallet]

Well I'm not gonna do google docs links since they're pretty useless to people not actively taking the class, and I expect to have your e-mail or google docs username in that case.

Anyway I'm streaming now, even if I'm not really paying close attention, so anyone showing up early can ask questions or get set up.

Come on people! Don't wanna miss class 1!

[Mr. Wallet]

Class starts in 5 minutes and the earlier you get here the better.

[Blastdown]

Great first day. I enjoyed and understood it well.
Other then my own lag issues, I am excited and having fun.

[Mr. Wallet]

Thanks.  Just talking at a black box in a very dark room, I have no idea if anyone is getting anything out of this, so it's good to hear feedback of any kind.

Class is over. We did kiddie-pool stuff about using the console, running a script file, and how add-ons are packaged up. We scratched the surface of functions and will be exploring them in greater depth tomorrow.

I had fun eating bagel bites and teaching my friend Minecraft. I get to pay attention tomorrow, because I knew everything today.

Hopefully I'll think of something interesting I want to script in Blockland that way I'll be able to put my knowledge to use. I didn't last time, and now I've forgotten a lot of stuff :(

[Mr. Wallet]

Let tape be a lesson to you all, use it or lose it.  It's like riding a bicycle: you forget immediately if you only ride it once ever.

[LoserHero]

Woops missed it. Lol

[Xbawks]

You should record these lessons.
Also, I'm gonna be coming to class next time.

[Quintano Man]

damn, why did dad make me help clean up the garage then. :|

[TomTheGeek]

Woops missed it. Lol

This :c.

[Niven]

I wanna come :C

[Moybus]

wow, I looked forward to this all week and I completely forgot about it.

[Demian]

You should record the classes for those who can't attend the classes.

What we learned in a nutshell:
Open console by pressing ~
Type in echo("Hello World");

He said that even typing one command into the console is considered scripting

We made a folder in our add-ons folder called Class_work, it doesn't matter the name though except it should have a _ in it.

We opened up Crimson Editor, notepad (any editor of your choice) and typed in
echo("Hello World"); then saved it as echo.cs and saved it in Class_work

Then we typed exec("add-ons/Class_Work/echo.cs"); to get the script to work.

You should also give him you email address so you can use the google docs he made.
