I agree. FPI is easy.
I have always felt that the condition/action the structure of FPI is superior to structures used in other languages.
IF the
Condition is met THEN take
Action
IF you know what an IfThen statement is THEN
you will find FPI easy to learn

Since you phrased both of the questions as IF/THEN statements I can safely assume that you will pick up FPI quickly.
FPI scripting is really easy to learn if you have prior programming experience in any other language.
You should try it, because I think you will like it.

VERY
You don't need to know alot about it to make games, but scripting can make your games more unique and more interactive.
