I need opinions on what I should do about my scripting/development ?
I would like to start this off by saying i'm not sure if this is the place to post this and I've been in inactive for a very long time but I guess ill find out soon. I've been trying to teach myself for many years with very little success and I told myself that it was because I was so young and didn't understand math at all and now that i'm older I have a question about learning again. I want to start teaching myself again however I have a very busy schedule because I go to school which i'm sure isn't uncommon however I have very little knowledge about scripting considering that what I learnt myself has at least been two years ago and i'm sure I've forgot by now. So the question now is should I wait until summer break or try to start now?

Personally, I started off by editing scripts made by a slightly more advanced nooby-scripter. It confused the hell out of me and I'm no-where near being as good as a scripter as most people on this site but I've only been scripting for about a year and a half to two years.
Just some advice, I'd start off by creating tools, very simple ones that will most likely be useless. It will get you frustrated at some point but it will also teach you a wide variety of things like properties, functions, mouse-clicks, etc.
If you can, start by making a tool that changes the color of a brick you click on. It's just a little task you don't have to do if you don't want to. Also, If i was you, I'd start learning now because if you want to become a successful scripter, then you have to dedicate a lot of time into it, even if that means 20 minutes a day.
Some helpful pages for the brick-color changing tool are:
Mouse clicked: https://wiki.roblox.com/index.php?title=API:Class/Mouse/Button1Down
Functions (On the contents bar, click 2, thats all you need): https://wiki.roblox.com/index.php?title=Function
Brick color (Contents bar, click BrickColor.new, 2.1): http://wiki.roblox.com/index.php?title=BrickColor
I can't find anything useful on mouse.Target but, mouse.Target is whatever you are clicking on.

I started off by creating my own admin script. In 2015-2016, there used to be games called, "SB Builder", or, "Script Builder", that I would go to test out my admin script and show off to others. When I did not understand how to code a command, I would go in studio and search up a admin script that has the command and learn how they coded it. Keep practicing, wait till summer break and watch videos on basics (or do what I did, make a script that is simple, not too difficult).
