Programming in GameMaker

Share your creations!

Yesterday I had a really dumb bug. Not a bug I did, one in gamemaker(1.4)

I use a lot of temporary arrays, but you have to trick GM to do so

You can't do: var _tAr[0] = x;

But: var _tAr = -1; _tAr[0] = x;

You also have to _tAr = -1; before changing them

Team request update.

If you're a GML programmer or a translator looking for a project, please read the article below.

Looking into how to most efficiently use Particles in Game Maker.
-You only need a new SYSTEM when you want to have different depth.

-Make a new EMITTER for each object making particles.

-Make a new PARTICLE when changing multiple settings (speed/sprite)

Squashing bugs one at a time. That's the way of the coder. At least know I have full gamepad support.

For day 397 of coding, I have changed how return to the title screen works so the changes in options will be retained

I've also learned that if I set variable = an entire array, array functions will affect both. with that in mind, array_copy() is needed.

Hmmm, particles cant do collisions, but maybe I can fake it?

if object is between weatherY and cloudOffset create pt_Splash at object top?

Means it's constantly looking, but my sysTimer can reduce the rate...

hello , i am making a new game called "Dont Stop!" the concept is to make a character which you guide him with messages but the problem is that I'm really lost , I can do that but I'm really bad at design. I will do my best to succeed
