Hi, i'm a newbie here, so if I do anything wrong that's probably why. Anyways, I was wanting to script a Howitzer-like stationary weapon that you can access when you interact with it. There would be projectiles that would explode on impact, and there would be a reload animation, sort of like the ones from Battlefield 1. I can build it just fine and just need help scripting. To be honest, I know nothing about scripting but would really like to learn. If this is too advanced or maybe do-able, I don't know. Thanks in advance, If anyone is offering a class on scripting i'd love to be apart of it.

First thing's first, anything you do takes time to do.
If you want to learn how to script, and you want to learn how to make a game, you need to put in the time and effort to actually learn how to script. It may take awhile, but the payout is huge in the end.
Second thing, you never stop learning about scripting. You discover lots of things everyday, even expert scripters learn new things everyday.
Everybody learns in a different way. For instance, I learned by deconstructing free-models and using wiki to understand a lot. I also used AlvinBlox on youtube to help me learn.

The Roblox Wiki is one of the BEST ways to learn about what does what. The Wiki includes dozens of tutorials that include challenges at the end of them that will help you with scripts you might end up using in the future. I always use this site to double check elements of scripting just to make sure that I'm using it correct. Link: http://wiki.roblox.com/index.php?title=Special:RobloxLandingPage
