Ok, I have been working with Reyhard and Dedmen on discord - I had followed the scripting tutorial and it had missed out several important points. Reyhard has updated the wiki page for the scripting tutorial and it is now clear what needs to be done - this is to ensure you have one of the valid module folders created with the a script within it open within the scripting editor. If this is not done, no code is executed. The tutorial also missed the compile of the scripts once created if the file that was open was one the user had created. This then gives me a working console.
If you don't follow this, then the console doesn't execute the code and effectively silently fails so maybe this could be addressed?
