Noob friendly, well-commented scripts to learn ruby and inner workings of the engine?

Hey guys!

I see all those cool videos of off-grid, zelda-like, rain, shading, atmospheric games, and im kinda just stuck looking at peoples

scripts and understanding very little. I kinda have a basic concept of object oriented programming since i looked at some java,

(which i picked because ruby looked hard to get into after GML), but im not used to the synthax, and i would like to

learn more about scripting , and at the same time learn ruby.

I saw on the internet one video that kinda went step by step, explaining ruby, and doing scripts at the same time (but i guess

i cant link it because he changed the window size, and that is verboten )

So yea, do you have anything for me, or is scripting too many levels above?

There are 2 aspects to this

A lot of the things you mention are done by eventing, not by scripts.  Have a look at this  Spend a couple of hours on it, and your knowledge will have expanded enormously.

Next, videos are a dreadful way to learn scripting, because you can't see the difference between (), [], {} etc at that sort of resolution, and lots of details are lost.  Instead, I suggest you have a look at these tutorials which are excellent and which use real live scripts to show you how it's done.

I've moved this thread to Learning Ruby and RGSSx. Please be sure to post your threads in the correct forum next time. Thank you.

It is worth every minutes you spend on it.
