    Although I'm not using Torque 2D at the moment and am concentrating more on Torque 3D, I recently purchased this and this product has helped me a lot already in learning the scripting side of Torque 3D. Not all lessons are relevant but this product plus the engine documentation is a great way to learn for anyone new to Torque.

    Wow, thank you for the support Chris. I have never used Torque 3D but I have labeled the lessons that will work with Torque 3D. Is this correct?

    1: Using Methods from the Documentation *
    2: Basic Torque Script *
    3: Functions and Creating Objects *
    4: Using Loops *
    5: Object IDs and Classes *
    6: Player Input Using Keyboards and Joysticks *
    7: Player Input Using the Mouse *
    8: Torque Script Packages *
    9: Using Game Scripts *
    10: Creating Behaviors
    11: Working with Vectors
    12: Mounting Objects and Using Paths

    The '*' marks lessons that work with Torque 3D.

    Also I would just like to note that we have released two extra lessons in our demo. Using Game Scripts and Creating Behaviors. www.makingindiegames.com/TSIT2_DEMO.zip
