14 is basically a Great time to start deving/coding, My friend Googs or Fraysa is 14 and he is a Pro coder (Java and Visual Basic). In fact, I just got on Holidays and I'm gonna start learning Java (I'm only 13)
Start with NPC's or just explore the Maplestory sources to help you learn....
Off Topic: I know what the java says/doing but I can't write it my self
The best way to learn Java for MS purposes (in my opinion ofcourse), is to get a repack/source and look at it. Don't be discouraged by the giant pieces of text or things you don't understand. Just take a piece of code and focus on that.
I myself, am not a great java coder, but I know what most of the code means, and that alone will help me to improve me skills.
What I'm trying to say is; understanding Java isn't that hard. And once you understand the basics of it, writing code will be easier.
Reading your original post, I say you should've posted this in the coding section, but if I were you just read a 24 hour book at first, look at one public maplestory source and decide if you really want to code in it... If not you'll decide to do something else with your life. This is if you really think you want to code anyway, I'm not experienced with coding so I'm probably not your best choice to choose from.
That is a marking system in all of our lives and balances out almost everything.
Personally, I didn't even knew what the heck programming was at 16 years old, not even knew it existed, never really asked myself how it was all done. However, I learn what programming was at 17, and seriously, it takes not much time to understand it at all if you take your time to practice and research about it.
The first time I saw a tutorial about C++, I was like "Okay... [X] button.". 1 year later or so, after learning Visual Basic and Delphi, I went to read the same tutorial, and I get all the C++ basics in less than a night.
The language doesn't make the programmer. If you can understand the logic of the programming, you can code in any language. It's up to you to pick up the one that suit you the most.
I started when I was 13 (or 12 going on 13, because I don't think I hit my birthday before I started), and now I am 15. Age really has nothing to do with understanding, and if you are dedicated to learning you can master every language. Really messy functional languages are always really hard to grasp though, because it forces you to think much differently then a typical high-level language would.
@TS:
You can start with hands-on experience with an already built source, and then transition to learning Java itself. I highly suggest learning Java first (with a book of course), because it will be easier for you to understand everything in the source a lot better, and will save you a lot of time not sitting in the help section when something doesn't work.
Edit: If you want to move to C++ then I suggest not getting anything written by Jeff Cogswell. He really doesn't teach you anything unless you're an absolute beginner and even then you could look a lot of this stuff up online (saves you a lot of money).
