Hello everybody.
I'm pretty new PAWN coder and would like to learn constantly new things. I started with some simple command like /fix or /admins and others.
Anyway I'd like to ask you for some aim at what should I learn next. I mean what should be my direction? From what should I start and what should i go trough to not become a beginner thinking that he is dumb and can't learn anything.
I'd like to hear some opinions what i should try to work on to learn new things instead of getting stuck in one place with a feeling I can't learn anything couse I'm too stupid.

Create things with your current knowledge and use wiki/tutorials to build your codes. Complete the PAWN Tutorial on samp wiki and classes and functions start to make sense.

Whenever you face a problem, view difference game mode's to get a idea how the author resolved the issue, then choose the one which suits you best. You can go to the wiki, for more details of functions, callbacks and scripting resources. To learn, you need practice. Try editing/making different types of command which perform different functions so you learn constantly as you wanted to. Go to the tutorial section of the forums and just choose the one your willing to learn, and simply learn it.

Think of an idea and try to create it. Nothing will teach you better than practice.

Yeah but the problem is that when for example I download some interesting script and I want to learn the code I don't understand almost all. And if so it's hard to learn more new things. :P

I recommend you read the Wiki before going through scripts, once you understand some basics, try making a edit. Then try creating a new one, but don't copy paste anything, take a peak in a already made code if you have to, but go through each parameter and understand it.

I learnt from a filterscript. Adding things, changing things, when I came across errors I came here or went to the wiki and learnt from the errors, what each error means, how to avoid them, etc. Eventually it just becomes natural, mind you .. I did script for probably 2 months straight after I started, hahaha.
