    Begin by using english in the forums, not sms language. It's a thing you need to learn by yourself.

    Well, if you know how to use Java, you can transfer the idea from: THIS, and apply the code to work for your idea.

    There are many youtube videos/series which provide these tutorials. I recommend chekcing those out.

    And I'll refute that entirely. YouTube is a terrible way to learn to use Bukkit because, frankly, 99% of the people who make those videos are pretty bad at using the API properly and/or efficiently. *Cough TheBCBroz Cough* If anything, ask questions and Google. But videos are a bad option.

    @Tecno_Wizard Yeah the videos are terrible. But I knew enough about Java that I could see their bad practices and fix them in my code. I actually learned from ApplejuzeProgramming, who was an older Android developer, unlike all the other terrible vids with bad practices, you could actually learn stuff from him.

    Most important line about that post.

    Experience!
    Start small and when you feel ready, make something bigger.

    I still recommend pogostick29dev, best one in my opinion (zombieghostdev is fine too, but doesn't upload anymore I think).

    Best way to learn is to want to learn, start small, find solutions to problems and you'll get the hang of it. Just gotta practice.

    I recommend not going to youtube. If you're good enough to pick out the many bad practices used, then I can't imagine you'd even need the videos. Just look at the (far superior) text tutorials and documentation.

    One thing is good in videos. It gives you a far better start in my opinion. And under start, I mean shows you how to set up things properly, because text tutorials often can't explain it correctly or understandably, or doesn't have pictures to show what you need to do. This covers the first 1 or 2 videos in any series. But still, text tutorials and books are the best.

    Getting back to the topic.

    @Hoyken12, learning any language is a trial and error. There are 4...5.....6 people here, who can tell you this. Programming is dynamic, there is no straight line to do things. Making choices, on what you need to do is easy.
    1.: Think on what you want to achieve
    2.: Create a "text-code" out of it ("First I need to teleport the player to the lobby, then with a scheduler after 5 secs...")
    3.: Do it in java too
    4.: Debug and correct your mistakes, and probably beautify your code.
    5.: ????
    6.: Profit
    (The 5. and 6. steps aren't neccesary)

    Again, if they are advanced enough to pick out the bad practices, I'm sure they are able to set things up.

    I needed the videos because I didn't know how to make bukkit plugins. But I was smart enough to see "oh hey they did that wrong, but I know what they actually meant."
