[Aerotactics]

This is going to sound funny, but I just realized I'm in the same boat as Vince, yet just occurred a couple weeks ago.

I first started "scripting" on a TI-82(?) graphing calculator in high school math class. It was simple and basic.

I learned Batch script next, still very simple but more complex than the TI-82. I created a zombie apocalypse adventure story game that was left unfinished. Want to see it? Find it here:Mediafire

Later on I wanted to create a Minecraft mod that included more biome structures, so I started learning Javascript only to lose interest.

Then there was a period where I learned about torrents. And long before that, I was never able to play GTA SA because I never owned it. So I got it and found out somewhere along the way about MTA, which then led me on to SA:MP.

I really liked Freeroam and stunt servers (cause I was a noob) so I started scripting a Freeroam server and later started creating individual Filterscripts and maps, which I posted on the forums.

I left SA:MP for a period before GTA 5 came out, and came back to SA:MP and MTA when R* left my tickets unread for 3 weeks. During that time I started learning CLEO in order to create and edit mods for GTA:VCS PC edition.

Since then I've learned a LOT more about PAWN and am still learning each day. I'm in college now and building my own Role Play server in SA:MP. I have since gotten back into GTA Online in GTA 5, but my intentions are still with SA:MP.

I am pretty much doing exactly what Vince stated, only I'm doing it right now:

Basically dissecting different parts [of scripts]. Looking up unknown functions on the wiki along the way. It was a huge leap for me when I finally understood how format works.

I learned "format" very recently and created my very first original script -- never created before -- that is a server restart command for Rcon admins. You can find it here:Mediafire

That pretty much sums up my scripting abilities as far as I can remember. Hope this inspires someone out there.
