There are many different coding languages; maybe try Java or C++

Another question, I heard this " E2 is practically just lua" being said before by some people. Is this true? And if it is wouldn't it be better for me to learn lua so rather than e2? Or is this just fake news I am hearing

Not sure; I think E2 is a from of Lua; but altered to be something you can actually code with.

its from 2016; but wiremod has not changed much since then so it should be fine.

Sorry for reviving a dead thread, but I must say that none of the basic tutorial videos are working and that the only working video is "E2 Mech"
Again sorry for reviving this but I am fairly new to actual E2 coding and have been wanting to learn it properly since the later months of 2020. I have not been able to find a single good video about expression 2 that isn't years old and mostly outdated. I want to learn how to actually use it sufficiently, adequately and properly as to get everything possible out of it.

there we go; replaced the basics videos and everything here should work.

Yeah, I need to replace the dead videos here.
But regarding e2 tutorials, no idea how to help.
Nobody seems to have a decent video on it.
But maybe talk to someone who does e2?
maybe ask around on the garry's mod discord?

@LunaThePlagueDoctor [RS]

you have a lot of ambition but im sure gmod will crash before 1/4th of it is done.

Also dupes have a maximum size so advanced duplicator V2 would be the best for that.

Even then, advanced dupe 2 may have a size limit that may hinder your idea.
