Do you have prior experience with other game engines? All my life I've wanted to make video games, so I've dabbled in quite a few game engines, but most things I tried to make as a kid didn't get finished. I started trying to make complete game projects in high school with Unity, but I became frustrated using it.

Simply save your script and it will be updated in the running game.
