Help me with the transition from actionscript to torquescript?

Hi, I'm hoping you could help me with pointing me in the right direction.

I'm a designer at heart and also know a lot of programming in flash. I use flash a lot in my daily work, using flash actionscript which is built on the same syntax as torquescript if I understand it correctly?

Anyways, I want to start getting a hang of how it works with scripting in torque game builder, so do you know any good tutorials that covers the fundamentals of how scripting works?

For example, In flash I'm used to being able to move the timeline and objects to make things happen, so I can place graphical elements this way, however in torque it seems to be working a lot different, with you having to place all graphic elements on the same "frame"? and also control these using external scripting..

Could anyone point me in the right direction so that I can learn the fundamentals?

Thanks..

/Fred

Thank you Joshua, found exactly what I was after there, "TorqueScript Overview" :)
