@Simbax Long answer:
I mean, if I were you I would avoid major plot spoilers (practically only aliens) until like 3rd chapter, just for the chance that somebody plays missions and course simultaneously, but be all end all even if we decide that there should not be aliens in first chapters, It's mere half hour of fixing.
You probably should mention how some mechanics you will use work, like tell that placing titanium ore in converter will convert ore into titanium. But nothing fancy is required. I think even though player might not know how all things work he will easily catch up. The things player will need in missions are also explained in missions themselves, so I don't think it's needed to have dedicated tutorial for that included into programming course, rather it should come along with new programming stuff player will learn (For example, instead of having mission "Convert Titanium Ore" where you teach player how to use converter, have mission, "Using goto" where you teach player how to use goto, by giving them task of converting titanium ore)
Short answer: Exactly.
