Hi, I have previous programming experience with vb.net and Java. I have not had any experience with C. Are there any tutorials that go down to the raw basics of scripting with Simba e.g. Implementation of libraries, syntax, etc. Issues that are covered when trying to learn a programming language from the beginning.

I really want to design scripts for the community, especially with the new Simba version and problems I have ran into with other peoples scripts not being compatible with the new version (0.991).

All help is appreciated,

Matt

I am new as well but I think the language is pascal. Thought I read that somewhere.


edit:
yep...

Simba supports both plug-ins in binary format as well as extensions written in the Simba programming language (which is Pascal-based).

Yea, there are users on this forum knowledgable in C but the scripts written for Simba are in Pascal and very slowly moving into Lape.

Check out the tutorial island on here and you will find many well-written guides on how to get started writing in Simba.
