Scripting question

[Doctorcheese]

I really want to make my own custom story and I can make good looking, detailed maps but it's that damn scripting that makes me loose motivation. I've tried to follow the tutorials but I get headaches from them, it's so complicated!

And setting up the dev enviroment and all, is that really necessary? Sorry if it's a stupid question but I really don't know anything about scripts.

So, I probably can't make my very own solo custom story because of the scripting issue but would I have to know how to script if I made maps in a team on a custom story?
