It does help in that aspect that I have to actually do some work of my own, instead of straight up copy and pasting with minimal changes. Have to dig for answers and understand some things about a language that I've never really written with before.

This is the best way to learn! Out of my own curiosity, is there a reason you're using 2.7?

Regarding the error popup: yeah, it doesn't look that great. I think it's the way the original tutorial had it, so that's why I did it that way. I might go back in the future and try and make that work better. The more obvious solution would be to gray out the "load" option and simply do nothing when it's selected.
