ScriptUO is Great

Just wanted to state my opinion, so take it for whats its worth.  I feel this site has a lot to offer everyone from beginner to the most experienced vet.  The scripts and the knowledge that people share is awesome.  I feel this site is one of the best i have been on and really enjoy reading the posts and seeing the higher ranked members responding to the newer members.  With that said i think this site is great and more people should know about the job well done here. 

I only wish there was away for new members that are not computers wise geeks to learn how to write scripts so we or myself can feel like we are contributing to the site more.  Great job guys and gals keep it up!

When you find a script that you really like, start looking at it and follow its flow. Try not to choose one like TM's scripts with 100k lines of code at the beginning because you will fry your brain like I did. Look for something smaller and simpler.  :D

Look and see what it is asking, and if you get stuck, google the line and add easyuo onto it and you can usually find out what it is trying to do. You can also go to Easyuo's Wiki and that will help a lot too. http://wiki.easyuo.com/index.php?title=Main_Page This will really help you understand what is going on.

Don't be afraid to try and write your own, the guys here are awesome about helping noobs like me when trying to write scripts. You will find that you are contributing back by doing this while learning a lot at the same time. I like to look through the script debug sections and see what questions are being asked and how they are being answered. Scripting was very difficult for me to understand at first but now that I am more familiar with it, it isn't so tough.

Dip your feet in the water, wade around a bit, you will be fine.  ;D

Thanks for the positive sentiments!  We have a great community here with the Elites still proving why they were chosen in the beginning, and we constantly have new people coming all the time that show a love for scripting and are also helpful to the young ones.

Drago-
  That is great feedback.  You know, I have never had a computer class in my life and I have my own script library here.  Pressing F7 while a script played was my friend for a while.  it steps through easy uo one click at a time and allows you to see the character action with the executed lines.  The tutorial section is also the bomb!
  The best way for a non scripting member to help out is often testing scripts that are just being released and writing comments that are accurate as possible as to where and what is going on.  Tutorials for new UO events is also awesome for members that do not get to play as much.  I always get excited when someone posts up the steps to a new quest.
Glad you joined us!

I know this site and you guy are the bomb, but my brain can't understand the next step of scripting.  I try to build sub with %1  %2   with he mini sub of TM. I got lose and don't work.  But I'm still trying.  I have 2 little scripts that I use often for me and hope to clean them better.    I love and like how the help go around.

Feel free to go to the appropriate posts and ask questions.  Since we all started out with probably the same questions you presently have, you'll get understanding feedback and help.

Best thing is to start small and work your way up.  If you try something too ambitious, then you may get frustrated.  Next best thing is to take your more complex project and split it up into smaller functions.

Thank you for responding i just believe that vet players should want to help others learn our game if we expect it to survive.  That is one reason i like sites like this one.

I am more than happy to test scripts for people and give feedback.  I may try that.
