First of all, hello. I'd like to learn to script. I have some real, real basic knowledge of Borderland Delphi 6, with those basic commands. If any of you can post a few links to get me started, and if you have any advices ( which is why I'm posting this ), I'd appreciate that very, very much. Thanks.

EDIT: Before any of you say, I'm already using SEARCH function. Most of the tutorials I found just simply suck. They're like: " Tutorial for beginners " PUT THIS HERE, PUT THAT THERE, THERE YOU GO - without actually explaining what each command does.

And there are lots more similar threads that can be found by using the search feature.

What does #include do? What is it for? Someone minds explaining?

Quote:

#include <a_samp> main() { print("Hello World!"); return 1; }

Also what is main and why are brackets beside it?

What is public...? No explanations what so ever. I want to understand what commands mean before I start using them.

And lots more links inside the threads that I pasted a few replies ago.

This is the BEST source of that information in a general sense....

I suggest you to take a good look at everything there!

This link isn't very helpful for people who want to learn Pawn specifically for SA-MP scripting. The links that Drebin and I pasted are directly related to SA-MP scripting and therefore more relevant to learn about SA-MP scripting from.

True.

Also I think that reading this won't help much as downloading a script and then editing it. What do you guys think?

I think that you should read through the first two links that I pasted, as that question has been asked many times.

Hahaha, alright. Thanks
