New Books
I am planning to write two new book in-world as time permits. (There's always so much to do in FL!)
The books will be:
1) Using structured design techniques for creating Linden Scripts. This will give a brief introduction to the software lifecycle and then look at the adaptation of pseudo-code to LSL design. This is important as so often coders jump straight in without considering the overall design of the script. Taking time to design the script properly can save hours debugging later.
2) Staged exercises helping you to learn LSL. To help beginners learn LSL by doing, this will look at the modular development of a couple of scripts. I am planning to develop two scripts in this way:
i) a colour changing, flashing light
ii) a flying carpet (very useful in sandboxes)
