Well, you have to understand something: PtokaX triggers functions, and works with variables. You can do things to variables. You might want to review scripts about it, and some info in the wiki (http://ptokaxwiki.no-ip.com/wikka.php?wakka=PtokaXAPI).
1. Decide on what you want your bot to do. Break up into smaller parts (functions).
a. Must Have
b. Nice to have
c. For the sake of it
2. Read up on tables, functions, files, variables and pattern searching
3. Look at the HOW-to's that many people have created on both this site and Plop's site (http://www.plop.nl)
4. Download as many scripts as possible - print em out and try to understand what they do...
The rest is up to you really :) but help's never too far away.
Here's where I started --> Initial LUA 4 Bot (http://board.univ-angers.fr/thread.php?threadid=1064&boardid=4&page=1)
hope this was of help to you....
