Thanks Again hehehe

Gello Slow down just a tiny bit one second please. Where do I start learning about how to do this? I like you think it'd be simple as well but if you can point me in the direction a a begginers first step I'll have better luck. And FYI I have no coding skill or background, I'm just now mastering Mozilla Composer LOL.
Oh easy as in among the easiest first UIs to make. There's a bit of a learning curve. But if you're intent on learning that's a good goal for a first project.

This is a good tutorial on writing a UI-based mod:

But if you have no prior programming experience, you may want to experiment with addons that don't have a UI. This is a good tutorial for just starting out:

Unfortunately (tho fortunately for the flexibility it allows), making AddOns does require programming. Even to alter some existing parts of mods require some.
