• How to code for lua/gmod/whatever
    6 replies, posted
So i'd love to learn how to code stuff for gmod as there are many ideas flowing in my head that i wanna express, though the major obsticle for me right now is the fact that there are zero tutorials for this kind of thing anywhere as far as i've looked and the ones i've come across either did not explain in good enough detail or where extremely outdated. If someone could point me in the right direction i would greatly appreciate it. Also please excuse any grammar/punctuation/spelling/whatever mistakes as its 5 in the morning and i feel the need to learn. Like right at this very moment.

But basically i need some directions for that as well.
Ummm, im not pro at lua, But I would start by learning the basics of lua. There are tons of videos on that. After that just brows the wiki and im sure you will catch on with what to do. GOOD LUCK!
