mads232 Posted September 19, 2015 Share Posted September 19, 2015 Hello Zomboid community! So I stumbled across this thing that might be somewhat irrelevant to PZ modding, but indeed relevant to beginners of LUA. It's a game (RPG like) where you code yourself through dungeons. It's called Code Combat.http://codecombat.com/ I think it's a great start if you want to mod PZ, but don't really know how. I hope you like it!

Quite cool - I've got a bit of experience with Java but Lua, for whatever reason, tends to throw me in a loop. A great resource, really Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

EnigmaGrey Posted October 29, 2015 Share Posted October 29, 2015 Not a bad little game. Shame microtransactions and a request to buy a subscription for precious gems happens so soon.Yep, can't even finish the first level without being required to subsribe for $9.99 a month. Ah, I see, you can move past that specific "blue circle, silver star" level without a subscription, but you'll find gaps in its teachings. e.g. they left out "if var then x else y end" which you'll need to know for the second stage. (Ah ha, appears to be bugs in the arrow of destiny, and some non-linear options in the level maps.)Hmm: http://opensource.com/education/15/7/codewars-codecombat-reviewA nice alternative might have been Code Academy, but they do not supoort Lua: https://www.codecademy.com Suomiboi and bvhv 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I've spent hours on it without paying, and I didn't miss any lessons. It is not necessary at all to subscribe or pay for stuff. Code Academy is a very nice website, and I've spent some time on that website too. They seem to focus on web development, although they just introduced Java. I actually found CodeCombat because I wanted something like Code Academy. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
EnigmaGrey Posted October 29, 2015 Share Posted October 29, 2015 3/4 of the way through it. Can't say I felt like I've wasted my time, Mads, so there's that. mads232 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
