You might want to explain then, what you consider to be the basics of scripting

Ifurita tutorial:

This tutorial will not cover how to make entities (func_destructible, Team_CTF_red/blueflag, etc) or how to incorporate them into your .MAP file

Your tutorial is fantastic, but I need to know how to make entities etcā€¦

help! :frowning:

First learn how to crawl, then how to walkā€¦before u consider running a marathon :smiley: /Drakir the Wize

In other words, learn how to make structures and basic entitys like doors and placing light before u even consider going into scripting. U can make great maps without a single scripting line.

there are tons of tutorials dedicated to specific entities, like destructibles, constructibles, spawn points, etc. Thatā€™s why I didnā€™t address them in my tutorial. If you want help with those, you need to be a LOT more specific about exactly what you want to see/do in your map.
