I'm getting interested in coding as I have nothing better to do with my life at the moment.
I'm interested in possibly making mods or maybe even content for Factorio.
In the interest of public information, can I get pointed in the right direction on where to go and what to learn?
I'm sure plenty of people here have some knowledge on what to do.
Thanks in advance.

Also, if you don't know programming, which I assume you don't, try this: https://www.google.com/search?q=learn+to+code

Re: Learning Factorio Code
Best way of learning: download some mods and try to understand how they work. Make changes on them and see what happens. Use the famous help board here.
Cool suggestion: Eatable MOUSE-pointers.
