Due to the redundant nature of many questions in this forum, such as:

- How do I create/edit a poseball?
- How do I create particles?
- What's a loop?
- What's a state?
- What's a [add basic programming question here]?
- How do I add floating text?


... and several other questions, I have added a complete newbie's guide to programming on the wiki. It is free to view by all at the following link:

Likewise, I've already had several contributors to it for stuff I missed. Feel free to fill in the blanks and be respectful.

Great start!

I did notice one thing, that might need to be changed, Your method for detecting avatars fails under multiple avatar conditions.

Also, for their first major script, your having them deal with many different areas of scripting. Permissions, object manipulation, global variables, events. It seems like allot to be throwing at them all at ones.
