Thats my opinion about the topic. How can that be offtopic?
And I didnt say you need to be a genius, but that the script kids lack major parts of the most fundamental maths and problem solving basics, just because they didnt learn it yet.
Trigonometry. People learn that in 8th or 9th grade. It is probably the most important basic for games at all. And there are thousands of questions by people who got no idea of it. Sure you can create nice scripts without knowing about that, but every damn second guy who wants to create his own roleplay gm asks how to get the position of a cars trunk.
About one of three help threads start like "how to do this?" or "how to create a script that does ...", mostly asking for extremely simple things, because the askers got no damn idea of how to solve a problem on their own. They got the parts (e.g. the scripting functions) and know what the result should look like, but got absolutely now idea how to put the parts in place to get that result. So either half of the community is extremely stupid, or they simply arent familiar with solving problems, which you mainly learn while growing up by everyday experiences.
I could go on with examples for hours. However, for me there is absolutely no doubt that most of the scripting problems arent scripting problems, but problems of too young wannabe scripters, who should rather grow up and come back in 5 years, and theyll realize that their problems arent problems anymore. And theyll also realize that using variable names and comments in their own language instead of english doesnt help anyone.
