Ikr? It is pretty hard to understand. I've been learning about if's, then's, while true do's, tables, instance.new, replacement variables, etc.

What is useful about Lua is that it's pretty much a compilation of a bunch of other scripting languages, so transitioning to a more popular scripting language, such as C++ or Python, maybe even HTML) is much easier.

Example:

while wait(.2) do
script.Parent.Color = Color3.new(math.random(255)/266, math.random(230)/255, math.random(200)/255)
end

"I'm going to learn that stuff in High School. When I'll actually understand what half the stuff means."

Nonononono! The #1 biggest mistake anyone can ever make is assuming that they'll possess more knowledge later in life. You're literally procrastinating for years when you make that assumption. Don't risk never learning a skill simply because you think you're too young; if you're competent enough to understand what I'm saying, then you're competent enough to learn a new language. I learned Lua in 8th grade and it was the beset decision I've ever made. You should definitely at least give it a try.

I didn't use the wiki to learn since I learned before it had legit tutorials, but I hear Camoy's Cookbook has the highest success rate.

Thanks, I'm trying to become a scripter, since right now I'm entirely dependent on free models for scripts.
