How Do I do Basic Scripts

[Elektrix]

I was wondering how to script because I want to be an engineer when I'm older and I want to start writing some scripts for MB just for fun or any future REAL mods

....you open the .cs file in notepad and edit it? I don't know how to answer this question. That's what I did (I'm being serious)

You read Jeff's signatures.

Partially true, except my signatures have comments, which the interpreter ignores at run time. Programming is awesome, because you can yell at your code and it won't yell back at you.

If you never coded in any language before, you should start learning the TorqueScript syntax i think, then you can try to edit files in notepad.

OK thanks guys

Just something to consider, the link that Alexis provided is for Torque3D's Torquescript, which has a few differences:

Marble blast does not support the following that Torque3D does afaik:

- no do-while loops
- no foreach/foreach$ loops
- no /* */ comment style
- no singleton keyword
- no shaders
- other misc. classes missing from the engine
- no -> and --> operators
