Depends on the add-on you want to make. There's several different methods requiring several different programs.

First learn TorqueScript.

Next learn how to model (If you're making a weapon)

Finally, make the script for the addon, package it, and release it.

Can you script already, because its very hard, i give you an example:

Taken from Weapon_Gun

stuff like this:

//audio
datablock AudioProfile(gunShot1Sound)
{
   filename    = "./gunShot1.wav";
   description = AudioClose3d;
   preload = true;
};
datablock AudioProfile(bulletHitSound)
{
   filename    = "./bulletHit.wav";
   description = AudioClose3d;
   preload = true;
};


//shell
datablock DebrisData(gunShellDebris)
{

Once you understand what datablocks are, how they are setup etc, it's all cookie cutter stuff until you reach functions and the like.
Then it'll take a while.
