Getting started modding?

"haha lol dead game"
I've always had the heart for the game, and I have a bit... Okay... Maybe miniscule amount of modding experience. A lil' bit o blender and art assets for new vegas. But going through the sticky that's available, a lot of the resources are not formatted well on exactly what I need to do and a lot of the download links are just dead. Any help would be appreciated. Thank you!

i recommend looking at other addon's files to get a start. blockland uses torquescript for scripting the documentation is out there somewhere
there's also the bcc, it's a discord server that can help you out with almost anything bl-related
soldier101@:
Docs. Community (these forums and the discord).
If you want a summary of the docs ask Chat_GPT. I was asking all kinds of crazy stuff about torquescript this morning and it made some usable code.
Conan:
as co owner and moderator of the bcc im happy to answer questions there or here. most of us modders got started from a mix of help from the first modders, experimenting ingame using eval scripts, and reading addon code. a big part of blockland modding is quick iteration time and being able to test things out live ingame.

Posted this before and will again friend. This is the single-hand best step by step guide to modding 15 years in a row. Don't be disheartened by this game being dead, there's a lot you can learn alone due to the changes you can make at runtime easily while dumping functions and values for objects. It's how I turned a hobby into a career. Good luck.
As for the discords, forums, community, et cetera, I'd use them more as a supplement to this pdf until you've practiced it in full. They certainly aren't as vibrant as they used to be.
