okay so this has been my journey so far

--first i started with alvin blox's tutorials from 2013 --then had a brake for like a month when i had no motivation to continue --then i started watching peas factory's tutorials -> they helped me out a lot --after i finished the tutorial series from peas factory i started making small projects

One i made is just a copy of saber simulator Now i'm working on a small game wich ill try to realease in like 1 month and im am still learning My advice is to work on small projects, as i did and slowly work your way up to bigger ones

Hope you found this helpful

My strategy for learning is experimentation. Look at free models, read their code and try to understand them enough to attempt recreation. Just start by developing an understanding of coding concepts as well.

Personally, I would recommend staying away from AlvinBlox. He doesn't really teach you any fundamentals just how to do it and his scripts tend to be poorly put together one thing that really gets to me personally is how he uses offset and nothing more when making GUI's. I personally have found the best way to learn is to start small slowly work you way up and it will pay off. Personal experience rushing things tends to lead to failure and can actually cause you more problems later when trying to implement new features into a game for example. I personally learned Lua from practicing, making small projects here and there. Scripter helpers mainly. We really do help, just ask the proper question. If you want a video source to learning I did learn a bit from PeasFactory but he's kind of outdated now, you could maybe still learn some fundamentals.

That whole text summarized into one sentence Practice, Practice, Practice and you will get there!

If this helps I would appreciate an upvote and a solve :)
