Tutorials usually don't deal with scope in Actionscript. Can you point me to some documentation and/or explain what should I know about it. I want to avoid problems arising from certain classes are not visible at certain places.

(Deprecated with Animate) ActionScript 1.0 is the simplest form of ActionScript, and is still used by some versions of the Adobe Flash Lite Player.
The main difference is that you can develop flash applications with a much stronger OOP influence than in AS2. AS3 makes it much easier to utilise third party code such as Greensock's Tweenlite, Papervision 3D and box2d.
Java, TypeScript, JavaScript, HTML5, and Python are the most popular alternatives and competitors to ActionScript.
ActionScript was the first language I learned and it's a really easy one to learn first. It sounds like you're already learning JavaScript, though, and JavaScript is comparable to ActionScript in many ways.
These should help.
