im new to samp , i started 2 days ago im enjoying it , but how do i host a server and script on it

sampctl provide a useful eco system for development You can read about sampctl and how to get started with server development here: https://github.com/Southclaws/sampctl/wiki You also want to learn basics of PAWN Some of the useful references are: Pawn curriculum by Y_Less (not sure if this is completed but still is useful) - https://github.com/Y-Less/pawn-curriculum open.mp wiki - https://www.open.mp/docs/scripting/resources/start Pawn lang pdf - https://github.com/pawn-lang/compiler/blob/master/doc/pawn-lang.pdf

Thanks so much

PAWN code is usually written in .pwn. You can use any editor to write and save it to .pwn, it's your choice. I prefer VSCode with pawn extension by Southclaws. And to compile the code to .amx you use pawncc, the compiler. (These are all clearly explained in module 1 of pawn curriculum by Y_less, which I linked above).
