Recently, me and some friends started programming a game, we decided to use Godot. The devs are me and another person. While he is doing his tasks without any problems, I keep struggling at easy things. I am having an hard problem to understand the documentation and I keep encountering a lot of bugs that I can't fix (it took me 2 days to fix a minor bug and right now I'm stuck into another). However, the real reason I'm writing here is because: not being able to understand the documentation has made me worry about my intelligence and made me think that I might have problems in reading comprehension. I fall into the special needs category (I think it's called like that in the US, I live in Europe) but reading comprehension is not one of my difficulties listed. At the moment I am very unmotivated to continue the project but I am ashamed to tell my friends because in the past it happened several times that I abandoned projects. What can I do to improve my skills and stop getting unmotivated at the first mistake?
In the past I read quite a bit of comics and manga and read some books too. Now I've completely stopped due to disinterest. You might say I should read more, and I totally agree with you, but I don't know what to read anymore, I'm not interested in anything.
After finishing Deltarune I developed a little interest in RPGs (I'm currently playing the Earthbound Halloween Hack) so could you recommend me some RPGs. It's not my favorite genre in fact I've basically dropped all the RPGs I've touched except Undertale and Deltarune, so it would be better if you recommended me short RPGs (that's the reason I'm playing the Halloween Hack and not the original game, which I've already played and dropped lol). Feel free to call me a retard but at least give me proper answers

Bro this was a long ass wall. You need to wrap that shit up and make your point in a sentence or two.

>>33284568
Oh I'm sorry. I expected someone to say this but the thing is I've seen longer threads before

Just remember that discipline is far more reliable than motivation.
You will never get good at anything in your life if you go like:
>Wants to do something new.
>Realizes he's not very good at it.
>Gives up.
That is irrational. Everyone is bad at something when they start, they get better at it by doing it for a long time.
You should just stick to it, ask your friends for help. Watch YouTube tutorials.
Set a time to work on the project every day. Turn it into your routine.
Or maybe you should just give up and fry your brain playing league and watching porn and TikTok.

I, OP, program, but am stupid, and losing motivation. How do I unfuck myself?

people that write programming documentation are autistic and don't do a good job

ask chatgpt or esp. anthropic claude and they can explain it in whatever sort of register you best learn with, can help you drill examples, think through debugging, and so on

>>33284563 (OP)
You're dumb. Many such cases.
Problem solving is a skill. Learning proper math should help.
Googling is a skill.
Finding help is a skill. Both online and offline.
And so on.
Normal human being can learn by doing. For example, take notes of what worked, and do that next time instead of the method that definitely doesn't work. Normal human being can talk to their peers and figure out the way forward. Whether you should stop making games with them or something else.
You're autistic and retarded. Try something simple like pong before bothering other people. https://20_games_challenge.gitlab.io/challenge/

Start with understanding the fundamentals well. Persistence and patience are very good muscles to work out these days.

Andaron Saga. Not short but decent reading.

Reference other advice in thread. Good luck.

Thank y'all who answered, even who insulted (I believe it's a good form of giving motivation). In the end I talked with the other dev and he said to ignore the bugs and keep going on with other taskes (he'll eventually fix all the shit I wrote). I'll also follow all of your tips, thank you very much.

Thanks, I'll play it after the Halloween Hack

That other dev should read about compassion fatigue and caregiver stress. You should too.

bait used to be believable

>>33284820
It wasn't a bait. I was a genuine advice. OP is a parasite.

>>33284832
Yeah and you are a nigger

Spoiler alert: Godot never arrives

asking AI to explain information you already have is retarded, you shouldn't dumb it down, you should learn to deal with it and figure things out on your own
this is why reading comprehension has drastically declined in people who rely too much on AI
