ehhm, first off.... i no absolutely nothing about scripting, but i dont think that you need a pass for scripting to DS. Just put the lua file into the DS folder and type in the run command ingame (on your own server of course, no scripting on official servers - BIG NONO!!)

secondly, you can type in the code with the "edit" command in your command prompt (windows standard)

Just a little something to start on

You dont have the access to use the /run command, only staff do. You can however put a script in the script section of a map that you are going to run, it will load at startup. Asfar as your original question, i suggest asking chromix, he is THE man to talk to, next to big F

You have to learn a little lua and pass a little test before chromix will learn you anything. He gets offended when people learn to script so they can spawn gaifens etc
