Before starting, forgive me for my bad English! :(
Hello everyone, i'm a newbie and, for the first time, I'm writing my first game in gml.
I have a "little" problem with the game, i'll show you only the objects that may interest you about this problem:

OBJ_SET (placed at the start of the game) - CREATE EVENT

globalvar situazione;
global.day = 0;
global.playermalato = 0;
global.playerdead = 0;
randomize();

OBJ_PLAY (placed in the first room of the game) - LEFT MOUSE BUTTON PRESSED

situazione[global.day]=floor(random_range(0,9));
global.playermalato = floor(random_range(0,3));
global.playerdead = floor(random_range(0,3));
room_goto_next();

OBJ_FOGLIO1 (placed in the second room of the game) - LEFT MOUSE BUTTON PRESSED

switch(situazione[global.day]){
case 0: global.cibo += 20;
global.acqua += 20;
global.medikit = 1;
global.fucile = 1;
global.munizioni += 5;
global.valigia = 1;
instance_create(1056, 0, obj_foglio_giorno1);
instance_destroy();
mouse_clear(mb_left);
case 1: global.cibo += 15;
global.acqua += 15;
global.medikit = 1;
global.valigia = 1;
global.mappa = 1;
instance_create(1056, 0, obj_foglio_giorno1);
instance_destroy();
mouse_clear(mb_left);
case 2: global.cibo += 15;
global.acqua += 15;
global.medikit = 1;
global.valigia = 1;
instance_create(1056, 0, obj_foglio_giorno1);
instance_destroy();

instance_create(1056, 0, obj_foglio_giorno1);
instance_destroy();
mouse_clear(mb_left);

global.acqua += 15;
instance_create(1056, 0, obj_foglio_giorno1);
instance_destroy();
mouse_clear(mb_left);

instance_create(1056, 0, obj_foglio_giorno1);

mouse_clear(mb_left);
case 1: Tatiana.malato = 1;
instance_create(1056, 0, obj_foglio_giorno1);
instance_destroy();
mouse_clear(mb_left);
case 2: Lucas.malato = 1;
instance_create(1056, 0, obj_foglio_giorno1);
instance_destroy();
mouse_clear(mb_left);
case 3: Laura.malato = 1;
instance_create(1056, 0, obj_foglio_giorno1);
instance_destroy();
mouse_clear(mb_left);

}

OBJ_FOGLIO_GIORNO1 - CREATE EVENT

switch(situazione[global.day]){
case 0: sprite_index = spr_g1s0;
case 1: sprite_index = spr_g1s1;
case 2: sprite_index = spr_g1s2;

case 3: sprite_index = spr_g1s9_4;
}
}

OBJ_CONTROLLORE (placed in the second room of the game) - DRAW EVENT

x=70;
y=120;
draw_set_font(Rudiment_font);
draw_set_colour(c_black);
//+30px in y
//Fabio
if (Fabio.stanco == 1){

} else if (Fabio.pazzo == 1){
draw_text(x,y,'Fabio è fuori di sè');
} else if (Fabio.malato == 1){
draw_text(x,y,'Fabio è malato');
} else if (Fabio.morte == 1){

}
if (global.fucile==1){

} else {

}
draw_text(x,y+320,'Munizioni: '+string(global.munizioni));
if (global.valigia==1){
draw_text(x,y+360,'Abbiamo una valigia');
} else {
draw_text(x,y+360,'Non abbiamo una valigia');
}
if (global.mappa==1){
draw_text(x,y+400,'Abbiamo una mappa');
} else {
draw_text(x,y+400,'Non abbiamo una mappa');
}

Through "OBJ_CONTROLLORE" I can monitor the final results, but there is a problem: it is as if several cases were calculated at the same time! Why this problem? What did I do wrong?
Please, I'm going crazy by three hours on this program and I don't understand what's wrong..
Pls help me :( <3

You need to put break statements at the end of each case, otherwise all cases following will also be run.

You should also sort out your indentation and formatting, that's a nightmare to read!
You can put code inside CODE tags to keep the formatting, hopefully that's what happened and your actual code doesn't look like that.

Notice the break statements in the code below:
Code:
switch(case)
{
    case 1:
        draw_text(x, y, "Case 1");
        break;

    case 2:
        draw_text(x, y, "Case 2");
        break;
}

I can assure you that the code is indented much better than here, I don't know why the PC has pasted it in this way, so sorry for the problem :(
So now i'll try the break :D thanks for the answer and for the advice!
Soon I'll tell you if the problem is solved ^^

If you want to stop losing your indentation the next time you paste code on here, put the code between [code] and [/code] tags.
I was just going to ask you what kind of magic you were using to stop the code tags parsing the word "and" between them in your post, but I can see in the quoted text what you did.
Teaching people without even speaking, FrostyCat never stops! ;)
