Re: how do you make things come at the right time?

Well, there are really two ways to do this.  The first is to start all your actions from the Green Flag and use the Wait block to delay some actions until you want them to appear.  The other approach is to use Broadcast Messages that you fire off at the end of one action to tell the next action to occur.  I prefer to use Broadcast Messages as it takes less tweaking to get things to come out the way you want them.

<broadcast[ Start Next Action

<when I receive[  Start Next Action
(Next set of actions happens)

Bluestribute - a tutorial sounds like a great idea!
