I think I've seen someone report this bug more than 3 months ago, and so far 2 GMS2 mac versions has been released, it hasn't been fixed yet.

Don't you think that this is a seriours problem plz?
or maybe I've doing something wrong?

This is a known issue. It does work via the debugger and the debug graph for now.

Debugger is useful but I wont run my program in debug mode every time, show_message() works but not very convenient.

The API works well in the very first mac versions, hope you guys will make the bug fix included in the plan

I think for me, it can't be considered serious yet. Mac version is still in Beta, and I'm sure there's many things higher up the priority list than showing debug messages, and there are work arounds available.

(EDIT: As of 2.1 its no longer in Beta, and while show_debug_message() is useful, I don't think its critical)

In the mean time, one thing you could do is setup your own logging script that saves the debug messge to a file.

See these two threads:

https://forum.yoyogames.com/index.p...or-show_debug_message-trace.13038/#post-86114

And it's easy to modify if you want to output the message somewhere else later.

All right, it's a good solution.
