I'm using really old codes of Ren'py and I don't know how to fix that for example I'm still using im.FactorScale but I don't know how to update that. I'm not native english and I'm terrible at learning :KEK: What you guys suggest?

1. Post the small snippet of code where you have the problem
2. describe what you want it to do, and what is not working (use ChatGPT to translate from your native language if necessary)

If you do this, then we can try to help.

I'm not grumpy, I'm just coded that way.

Does it still work? If yes, leave it alone
While I often complain about outdated code, I'm tempted to second that.

Ren'Py have a relatively strong backward compatibility and sometimes it's just better to follow the "it if works, don't change it" rule. Especially when "changing" do not imply an effective improvement.
By example, imagebuttons are better than imagemaps because more flexible, but for the im. part, it's mostly a new way to do it, way that generally just hide the call to the old im. function.
