Author Topic: Beginner to coding, need good references (Read 839 times)

I've decided that I want to learn to code for BL, and I was wondering if anyone knew of some good/basic scripts I could reference, or projects I could start with. All my ideas are too grandiose for me so far. :P I don't want to bother people with tutorial requests, I just want the materials to strike out on my own.

Any help is appreciated.

EDIT: Oh, and is there a way to make GUIs on Mac? The current tutorial doesn't cover it.

just made a brick making tutorial.I think it pretty explanitory. check it out.

tutorial:http://forum.blockland.us/index.php?topic=68826.0

Thanks, but that's not quite the type of coding I'm looking for. The coding required for brick making doesn't apply excessively to other types of add-on creation in BL, although it is a useful thing to know.

There are many things that are involved with coding, I also have a tutorial, it's on making GUI's, but you should learn how to code before you actually make GUI's.

Yours is the one that doesn't apply to me because I'm on a Mac. XD It's very good otherwise, but you said yourself you couldn't help Mac users.

You know it... Why can't these 2 operating systems just make everything universal for everything, not having different files for different OS's

Then what would be the point in having different OS's?
