It depends on what you mean by "good". Most people who script around here understand how ROBLOX scripting works but they aren't all too good at the more complex aspects that you need to create really incredible things.

It took me a couple of weeks to grasp the basics of ROBLOX scripting, but a lot longer (well over a year) to really get to grips with the complex mathematics behind some scripting. However, this is not to say I know all of it because, like all of us, I've only really scratched the surface.

I mentioned all the computer languages I know, not just the scripting. That should give you an idea of how easy it is to learn.

I'm learning Lua, and I'm decent at it, and it took me 6 months. Yet I'm not advanced.

@integer_overflow given you know all that you must make phone apps or something
or maybe not considering you don't know xml and java

actually since I'm stupid and can't remember you might have put java but nearly 100% sure you didn't put xml

names of scripting languages
Lua is ROBLOX's scripting language so that's the one to worry about
Technically it's R-Lua or ROBLOX-Lua but we just call it Lua for short

Make sure you spell it "Lua", not "LUA", et cetera, and pronounce it Loo-Uh.

Learning new languages scripting and programming is easy. But using them well and designing powerful, elegant and adaptable systems will take time. Never stop improving and learning.
