I can script/code alright; but Pascal is a PAIN to read, sorry to say. Looking through some of those 10k+ scripts... I just quit half way through lol.

Is it possible to script for SIMBA in Python?

I'd learn Pascal if I was to be devoted to scripting in SIMBA; but truth be told, RSBot is so much easier to use at this point in time.

I'm trying to write a script for the combat beta with SIMBA; something a little PoC. Just one. I don't want to go through the hassle of learning the way you guys write Pascal. Heck I tried getting through one of the antileeches after going through a bunch of tutorials and couldn't do that lol.

If someone could just make a script that imports save, removes money from money pouch after entering pin, drops the money, and logs out - and share it with me so that I could learn from it; i would be eternally grateful. ATM I can't get anything to work ;[

Ah pascal isn't that difficult to understand its pretty much like reading a book. my advice to you would be to download basic scripts and edit them to do different things or build simple scripts that do next to nothing, Also look at the include whilst your making your way through the tutorial sections. this way you understand whats happening rather than just what it does. it really isn't that much different from every other language.

I personally found PASCAL to be fairly easy to understand especially after you have worked with it for a while. You just need to start from the bottom and work your way up

I find it very easy to read and understand.

I first learnt C++ then C#, then java, and then I came here. IMO if you can script in any of those languages, it should be very easy to learn pascal.

its not a pain its just a different language. If you were actually experienced you would find it very very simple..

Lol pascal is the simplest language or something... You don't need to spend countless hours to understand something.

There are several languages that would be nice to script in, Python would be one of them. If you're an experienced coder you can help bring Simba's core to other languages.
