I just finished the official tutorials, but none contained information about creating scripts. I've poked around and found plenty of tutorials on how to learn Ruby, but I've been having trouble learning how to use that knowledge to create scripts for VX Ace. Like, if this was C++, would scripts be like functions, or entire programs? Are any variables already defined, and what information do the scripts input and output, and how? Like, how do I get a script to import a value for the current hp of the first hero in the party or something like that?


I'm not looking for answers for these special questions, I'm just using them as examples what I mean about using Ruby.


Can anyone point me to any applicable tutorials or instructional videos or anything? Even just being pointed in the right direction would be immensely helpful.


Also, what's the difference between rgssx and rgss3? Does x mean "placeholder for a number?" And is only rgss3 used for vx ace?


I apologize if this thread is redundant. I tried to find an answer, but couldn't, probably because I'm new here and don't really know what I'm doing yet.
