Hello,
I've been working on a game in gms 1.4 for some time now and although it's mostly going well (with help from friends) I came across a problem recently that I would like to understand but I just don't.
I'll try and keep it short, but in my game I have a mini-game puzzle and that is what I've been working on recently and once it was fully tested and worked perfect (as far as I could see), I then had like 15 sprites and 20 objs named spr_puzzle_x, obj_puzzle_x
as you can imagine the sprite/object list at the side was very messy so I created a folder called 'puzzle' to put all my puzzle obj's into.. this immediately caused my game to stop working correctly and the puzzle was broken.
I loaded a backup and it was fine. made a folder, added the objs and again.. suddenly the game isn't working right.
it seems that because I changed the order of the objects when dragging them into the folder, that is what broke my game. but after much searching and googling, I cannot understand why the position of an obj in the asset list would mess something up?
Could some kind person please explain (very simply,as I'm stupid) how moving an obj into another place on the list can break the game?
(I'm sure if I understand why it's doing this, then I'll be more careful in the future)
