nice idea, but first we need to know how to make/change scripts and how to use them. Thx.

programmers know. if you're not a programmer, it's gonna be quite hard - it's pure script editing.

The best advice I can give is START WITH MAKING MAP EDITOR PLUGINS! They're the easiest to make, and there are already pre-made scripts available to work with. Just open the map editor, click on the plugins icon next to the other icons, and explore. If you're looking at the scripts with no idea what you're looking at, I suggest looking up any intro to C++ tutorial...that should make things clearer. Just try to think of something that would be usefull in a map editor, it could be just about anything really. Jumping into game-mode scripts from nothing is a huge leap, even with programming experience. Plus this is still in beta so they haven't finished documentation/tutorials and whatnot.
Good Luck! :thx:

There's really nothing useful or interesting you can do with map editor plugins. As for documentation and help files, the previously mentioned big.h reference file and some experimentation is enough, it's not that complicated.

I really suggest anyone who is going to learn to at least read through the wikipedia on topics of C++, structured programming and object-oriented programming.
