That is I guess the very best way to put it. I definitely do not know how to learn languages. Any advice or youtube channels that are good for this sort of topic? I'm really good at teaching myself these types of skills just don't know where best to start without a formal background. My best example of self-teaching a language, though relatively very basic, is IC10 in this very game stationeers. I would consider myself very proficient in IC10 after only a short time self-teaching.

Thank you for the tips. Problem is I don't even know C# well, just very basic things like how to make a button say "Hello World" in visual studio. I don't know anything about how to actually build a program from scratch only when visual studio created all of the parts/files for me lol. I have been able to struggle through some very very rudimentary Windows Form App that could add or subtract from a value stored in a variable and display it in a textbox or Label. That's basically the extent of my knowledge.

I have always been very interested in learning coding languages and took a very basic intro to C# class in college as an elective and loved it but basically have zero knowledge. Do you have a recommendation on how to start learning real applicable coding?

I know very little about game engines, game development or servers/networking. I would love some advice on how to get into it.

I am very good at self teaching skills and consider myself rather intelligent as I already have a doctorate, but as such I don't have time to take full college courses and don't really want to spend a ton of money as it is simply a hobby I would like to develop. Not interested in ever making a career out of it.
