erorr404 Posted January 16, 2007 Share Posted January 16, 2007 Use this to learn LUA: http://www.lua.org/pil/ The scripting tutorial from the QA team is just an example of a working script. Link to comment
driver2 Posted January 16, 2007 Share Posted January 16, 2007 Pawn can also be edited with any editor (like Notepad), Pawno just provides some extra functionality like compiling from within the GUI. Use Google to find other Editors. Mostly they will have more functions like syntax highlighting which could be useful. Link to comment
Jani Posted January 16, 2007 Share Posted January 16, 2007 I advise using Textpad rather than Notepad. Link to comment

driver2 Posted January 16, 2007 Share Posted January 16, 2007 You can call external programs like a compiler or interpreter out of most editors. Also there are features like syntax highlighting, code folding, function listing, auto completion and more in many editors to make coding easier. Link to comment
Brophy Posted January 16, 2007 Share Posted January 16, 2007 MTA has its own built in script debugger which you can view ingame Link to comment

Brophy Posted January 16, 2007 Share Posted January 16, 2007 You require no tools, everything you will need comes with mta (DM, which isnt out yet), and to write scripts just use notepad Link to comment
