There are some tutorials around, but if you truly have no idea what to do with code whatsoever(like me) there isn't much in the way of a from-scratch document.(Like, I have no idea what an arguement is)

I found the best way is to download and use some of other people's scripts, get a feel for how they work and try to understand them (well, the simple ones), and learn through playing around and stuff. I wouldn't say I can script, but I can understand how some scripting works and stuff, which I couldn't on about monday.

Also, that link of matthew's at purezc that takes you to the tutorial was VERY usefull (although I didn't bother actually writing and compiling the whole script)

An argument is a variable which you can set via the FFC that is handling the script's data Amaster, it means you can have flexible variables in scripts that mean you wouldn't, say, have to rewrite a script that plays a SFX for every single SFX you want it to play. They're declared within the brackets of the void run command.
