Hey all, you all talked about downloading code and using that to prototype a game. But how would you go about doing this. I have some understanding about code and variable because I had to learn it in school for Game Dev but it never really clicked and I'm still terrible at programming. So if you have code downloaded from say 5 different people how would you go about piecing that together or adding what is missing for non-programmers? Also how would you know what kind of code would be right for your needs or making sure it is all there for what you need?

Thank you,
Chris
