While the established contributors here are more than happy to provide code reviews and constructive criticism, it is not their job to teach potential contributors C++ or decompilation fundamentals. As a project that is largely an artifact of the free time of its contributors, the more of that (often scarce) resource that can be dedicated to efficient work, the faster the decompilation will progess. Unfortunately, this results in well-intentioned but poorly constructed contributions actually hurting progress in the long-term. While we are greatly appreciative of the sentiment, if you aren't very confident in your decompilation abilities, it is generally in the project's best interest that you return when you have a better grasp over the process. +While we're thrilled that there is so much interest in reverse engineering LEGO Island and are happy to accept contributions from anyone who would like to help progress us further to our goal of a complete codebase, proposed changes to this repository must adhere to a certain degree of engineering quality.

Generally, decompilation is a fairly advanced skill. Depending on your current proficiency with C/C++ and x86 assembly, it could take you months or even years to learn the skills necessary to do it adequately. If you're still interested in learning, [part 1 of the decompilation vlog](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MToTEqoVv3I) covers the overall process and should give you a starting point that you can dive in from. Once again, please make yourself familiar with this process before attempting to contribute code to this project.
