This seems like a good teaching tool.

From your video, I could suggest a series of smaller, single task, tutorials that would really help beginners.

eg.
If the question was, "How would I make an NPC toss several bombs to blow up a group of rocks all at the same time", this video would be perfect (Except you don't get to see the bomb delivery, they just kinda show up).

If the question was, "How do I make a rock blowup", a beginner may miss the important details.

The first thing I noticed was that you automatically add closing scope delimeters, then build that section of code within them. Perhaps this could be the bassis of a good primer, as many of the "help me with my dmod error" requests are simply this sort of error.

All in all, I thought this was a good production, but the filesize may be extreme for those still on dial-up.
