I've been trying to learn how to script, but I rarely see any scripting classes scheduled. I have looked at the Linden Scripting Language Guide, but I tend to sometimes learn better when I am shown how to do things rather than read about it.

Edav,

I am going to schedule my first scripting for non-scripters class sometime late this week - I'll let you know when I do. Is there anything in particular you really want to know how to do?

All I need atm Ano is Basic Scripting Skill Class and I believe Pen is looking for the same thing.

We need either a "basic scripting 2" or a more extensive basic scripting class.

The classes i've gone to learn scripting have glossed over the basics, but I already knew that stuff... I want to learn if/else statements, variables, loops, and whatnot.

Syntax, even.

So we're talking a really basic, basic scripting class? I could probably do one of those, I've been meaning to set up scripting classes.

I can only do early afternoon slots though.

Scripting 101 is obviously very basic and aimed at non-scripters. Lance does a piss poor job at it but Jericho's class is very informative and adequate for all noobs.
I have often suggested a 201 class that would be slightly less basic. I even taught it once but david scolded me for not following naming conventions afterwards :(
Here's hoping that the SLU people get their act together eventually...

Lordfly,
if you want, look me up in game. I'd be happy to explain that too ya. The next couple days are work heavy for me so I might not be on much, but I should be around more from Thr-Sun.

I could make myself available to "tutor"ish sessions myself; I don't know if my teaching ability can handle an entire class. Of course, I never shut up so eventually something I spout out might make sense.
