Excellent Guide. I think it deserves a sticky.

Alright, I attempted to address most of these problems. I'm going to scan over it a few times and add tooltip tags to any technical terms that may fly over new user's heads.

Working on them right now. I'm bad at explaining things so I'm stumped on trying to explain a bot right now.

"A bot is something with properties similar to that of a player, but without an actual person controlling it. They usually have some functionality built in for players who interact with them. The most common usage is a type of vehicle that moves like a player (e.g. the horse - can turn to face any direction instantly, can strafe...), though some add-ons implement other types of bots."

I see a notice to mouse over annotated terms, but they aren't appearing any different to me. What browser are you using?
I think you should add a glossary (I know I called the whole thing one) to the end where you can go really in depth with stuff, then link terms to that.

That's a good idea, I'll implement that later.
Also, I added a brick properties section, and went into detail about the coordinates used in output events like addVelocity.

I'm pretty sure playSound for clients is an add-on
