I would recommend that you start coding right away, look into some simple tutorials with something like C+, start off very basic and become fluent with the foundations of coding, if you do not know what a certain thing means you are going to have a tough time following more tutorials. Oh and it will most likely be confusing and frustrating as fuck starting off, that's normal if you have never coded before, but once you learn one language it's a lot easier to learn another for the most part, I'm not talking about direct carry over but more so having a general understanding on how programming works. Best of luck to you, I do warn you that you may become addicted to creating plugins for buddybots and such once you get decent. It's incredibly fun.
Yup, or pay someone to do it for you, you really won't care for more features to make life easier, unless you have a large farm, and want automation + peace of mind. It's literally easy shit to do coding for buddy the way it is with the beta. Heavy code changes? Who cares, you have the fundamental logic from your code what you want to do, changes the api are ape easy shit, change what was changed. Like I can't be blaint, most people want freebies and shit thrown at them expecting it to work without needing to know how it works, times have changed my friends, learn or be left in the dark.
I'm not sure what post your reading ? when did I say the community was dead ? when did I say I wanted help (ie spoonfead in your words) ? when did I say I was not making money ? When did I say anything about heavy botters sharing anything ? id suggest you reread my post or just simply move along because your reply to my post makes 0 sense ?
