I really want to make scripts, but I have no idea how. Can someone tell me how you learned? I'm really interesting in learning programming so any help is appreciated. I'm also gonna have a 10m give away when/if I release my first script. Thanks!

I am also a novice script writer, but before I began scripting bots I learned java for competitions. Object-oriented programming (OOP) is not something I focused on too deeply but I read about it and understand the concept. In my studies I use a few reference books like http://www.bluepelicanjava.com and Head FIrst Java http://www.headfirstlabs.com/books/hfjava/ The former is available for free download. The latter you may be able to check out at your local library (which is a valuable resource for finding java literature without having to pay) or purchase. If you're interested in how I'm learning the API and constructing my projects, you can add me on skype (inphantasmal). Good luck.

It might be worth taking a look at this scripting tutorial that I put together:

 

http://osbot.org/forum/topic/10553-basic-script-tutorial-for-beginners/

 

It will help you create a basic woodcutter that will chop down trees and then drop the logs once the inventory is full.

All i have to say is good luck!!
