So, peoples. What you doing.? Im creating one simple include pack for rookies. That pack will simple functions, some little AC detections (CBug, BH...) and simple creations of things in one line (businesses, vehicles, etc...) with Save and Load in dini2. So is that good idea? Will it help rookies?

If you mean grabbing a bunch of includes and rereleasing it as a "include pack" then no

#define MYSQL_SAVING - Save in mysql
Else save in dini2

EDIT: sqlite or mysql

The new users, from what I've gathered from helping many over the years, want to write everything themselves so they can learn - even after being proposed the value of using a library and the issues with reinventing the wheel (even with the education factor) they still just write stuff themselves. On the other hand, you've got seasoned developers who run servers with active player bases, staff teams, forums, they may even make some money off it too. I've often noticed both "not invented here syndrome" as well as a focus on features rather than engineering, the mindset of "this external thing will take too much effort to learn how to use so I will just create my own". Not to discourage you from creating and releasing something, just a perspective from someone who has written plenty of libraries and helped plenty of people from absolute beginners to experienced old-timers. My advise is to absolutely use GitHub, document it well, write tests and show examples - especially if it's targeted to beginners.

Every begginer (scripting) have different see on that. You also have rookies that download gamemode, and edit textdraws and put it on GP and open server or these who want to learn!

Someone want to learn, someone want to steal. (OOOOooOooo, write this! xD)
When I say this, "steal", I don't mean to grab a bunch of code from some gamemode, I mean download some gamemode and edit it a little, so if the old servers which used that GM get closed, and new server opens with that, peoples usually say something about stealing and that bullshits...

So this may not be used by begginers, but this libraries is flexible and can help to finish mod quickly. After finishing these libraries I have to write example GM with everythyng, but basic! So the developers will need to explore everything. (Because it will be flexible).

And, also, I will use GitHub! I have planned to use that.

Make it easy, and hand it to them on a plate, and they will find a way to amaze you by how easily they can screw it up.

Chill buddy not everyone wants to use those.Let the guy accomplish what he is chasing.
