I taught myself by snooping through levels as a novice LAT about 3-4 years ago on Trinity. I asked a few questions on RC, experimented with what I read in the code, and got as far as I am now. A lot of scripters and NATs dislike my coding because it's sloppy in their eyes. That's because I'm a self-taught scripter and had no knowledge of programming outside of Graal. My scripts, however, are very functional and secure. For example, I made on Era

~gang doors
~gang metal detectors
~event: outbreak
~et control
~business stocking/buying system
~business scrolling speakers
~elevators
~keypads

and a lot more.

Moral of the story is to experiment with codes you see, ask about the functionality of a segment you don't quite understand, and put it to different use in your own code.

Same here XP, Mainly looked at Inverns script and messed with some code and vars which really helped alot, thanks Invern, Then Napo kinda tutored me :P Once I left Aeon, and went to Appolox I had Napo as a reference and he helped alot, and Invern kept telling, "Go to the Wiki and learn it damn it!" lol which got me motivated, Anyways back on topic, like Blonkt said, try to be rude to people who try to help, you get more scripts with honey than vinegar XD
