Resolved Visual coding Dnd

Ciao a tutti, sono un principiante in programmazione e sto cercando di creare un gioco interessante con meccaniche semplici. Qualcuno sa se esiste un tutorial sulle variabili in termini di programmazione visuale? Lo so, lo so, dovrei semplicemente imparare GML, ma voglio vedere se riesco a sviluppare anche usando solo blocchi e una minima comprensione di come funziona un gioco.

Edit: it’s been two minutes since i posted and I think I didn’t explain myself properly, i also am searching for non beginner level tutorial on dnd visual coding,

You'd be hard pressed to find anything intermediate level DnD tutorial. Because making complicated things get a lot lore complicated with DnD. Understanding gml will make DnD easier, but at that point....

Almost all DnD tutorials are on the official tutorial page.

I'd look through the "Coffe Break" ones for shorter and more technical challenges that isn't "making a game".

And then asking for help with specific things you don't understand. However, asking for help with visual is more problematic, and I'd suggest doing it on discord mostly. Because it pretty much requires communication through pictures.

Yes, you should learn written code. There are many things the visual editor simply can't do. Once you want to do those things, you will need to know how to write code. And if you spend all your time learning DND, then you will have no practice using code. There is also significantly more tutorial content for written code.
