...Its arrays are also very slow. Yes, using arrays can slow down your game, especially if you use them in long loops. Its data structures are much better in pretty much every way, so you can just use a data structure for an array.
People familiar with GM quickly learn a few things about it: never use execute_string(), never stretch the game to full screen, never use the GM's built-in sound functions for anything (use a dll), and never use arrays.
Which data structure are you refering to? |

Any of them. They're all coded better than its arrays. ds_map, ds_grid, etc.

I like this tutorial much better than the one provided on YoYo Games. I might be tempted to actually make something with Game Maker now.

derek_tutotial.gmk lives!
You should pin these or something, although at least currently there's no reason they'd be hard to find. I just think if people add more tutorials this could get to be more difficult to dig through (yes, I know there's a search function, but still).
Maybe combine all three as separate posts in one topic?

Hey, sorry for noobing around, but I can't get the movement script to work  The default GM actions work fine... I'd really like to learn some real scripting though, and besides, the default GM actions let me start a movement in one direction and end the movement by releasing it, but if I press two movement keys at the same time and let go of one this makes the character stop... Which is insanely annoying  Any help to offer a poor noob in time of despair?  |
