new to the whole scripting thing

are there any websites that show scripting help because im lost when it comes to that topic. I need like the basics. thanks in advance.

Well...

It isn't complete, but the 'Hackerscript API' section of the manual has a lot of the functions...
Also, http://www.electronicwar.net/wiki/Basics_of_Hackscript has some good pointers in it...

If you know any javascript, you should be able to work with this games language pretty well, as it has a lot of similarities with it (as far as function syntax is concerned)... Just remember your semicolons...
