hello,
i’ve been using unity for a while and i have written various scripts in javascript and i would say i am fairly familiar with the language. however, i feel like there are no advanced tutorials for javascript in unity. there are some things i cannot do or understand with unityscript and i would like to get better. are regular javascript and unityscript similar enough that reading any old more advanced javascript tutorial would apply in unity?
Any programming tutorial on the net dealing with any language which uses curlies {} will pretty much work fine to learn from. Things that are different are commands and such, but math and loops should be the same/similar. Relax about the process, just put here what you’re confused with step by step and we’ll add some tips.
Not really. You could try ActionScript3, which is pretty similar to UnityScript. (Also JScript.NET, but that’s not used much.) C# tutorials would actually be useful, because Unityscript and C# work basically the same way for many things, leaving aside the syntax differences.
For basic things, but e.g. when you start talking about things like classes, Javascript and Unityscript are way different.

thanks for the replies. for any experienced or more advanced programmers reading this, how did you learn your language? were there any books that helped you or tutorial series? with christmas coming around, i want to know if there’s something useful i could ask for
