If the title didn’t make any sense, what are some things that I should script to get better at it? I am a beginner.

Instead of practicing by yourself, you should watch tutorials for beginners on Youtube such as Alvinblox’s tutorials playlist. After that, you can then create a game using your knowledge that you learned from the tutorials.

try looking at free models, once u see a bunch of the same thing said over and over u just memorize it. tutorials are good too. try twinplayzdevyt, thedevking, or how2roblox. anyone other than that i found was too hard for me when i was just starting.

I recommend you to start learning about:

  • functions
  • pairs and ipairs
  • tables
  • datastore
  • “Client” and “Server” sides
  • while true do
  • delay()
  • coroutines
  • pcall functions
  • math values
  • CFrames, angles and positions
  • Module Scripts functions
  • Local Scripts functions
  • Scripts functions
  • MarketPlaceService
  • HTTP service
  • TweenService
  • Vector3 and lookvectors
  • physics (for example: Aling Position, Aling Orientation, etc)
  • tonumber and tostring
  • spawn()
  • Enum
  • return
  • if statments
  • os.(clock, time, etc)
  • RemoteEvents and RemoteFunctions
  • WaitForChild(), FindFirstChild()

I can continue with a really long list but this is my recommendation to start learning. Everything is easy if you try your best, good luck!

If you already know the basics, use what u have learned to create something, just something totally random but combine (mostly) everything you know into it.

I disagree, yes I learned from tutorials and that helped a lot but you can’t rely on tutorials for ever. After you watch maybe like a basic scripting series and maybe a few “how to make [gamename]” videos, what helps the most is trying to do it by yourself. And if you are copying the code, a lot of times it’s not the cleanest code (which can make it easier for a beginner to comprehend) but you should tweak some stuff AND try to clean up the code.

I would recommend after learning the basics of scripting you try to make a Tycoon game/project by yourself.
