Hello there,

I have some basic knowledge of programming and I want to start learning to write scripts for Runemate, most tutorials seem very outdated.

Is the Overview (RuneMate Game API 1.15.2) the only thing that could help me write my first script?

I personally use Files · develop · RuneMate / Community / Game API · GitLab

Here's the advice I usually give:
YouTube tutorial of an entire basic TreeBot:

A basic IDE setup tutorial (eg Michaud's): Tutorial - [2022] Setting up IntelliJ
Runemate API jdocs: Overview (RuneMate Game API 1.15.2)

Beyond that, I'd just recommend playing around with it and finding example bots online. If you google "runemate github" you can actually find a lot of examples.

Thanks for the reply, so the treebot video is still viable?(I guess cause else you wouldn't mention it) also is the structure used in coding still the right way to approach most projects? Is the treebot coding structure the way you approach problems? Or is it the easy way and there are harder but better ways to approach ? Or is Treebot the best skeleton for a project or the only way?

Most developers on here will use LoopingBot rather than Tree/Branch but it's all down to personal preference.

With LoopingBot you have a bit more freedom. I would take a look at a few open sources that were released a few years back and see which you'd prefer to work with.

I usually recommend starting with Treebot because it helps guide you towards good bot development patterns (like one action per loop). But you can use whichever. I use loopingbot, but taskbot also seems good.
