    SOLVED Can I use Bluetooth on the GMS2

    I want to use Bluetooth for communication in my game. And I find that the newest manual doesn't have a definition for “network_socket_bluetooth”. But it's still highlighted in the code editor. Can I use this regardless of the Manual？ Or should I code my own DLL for Bluetooth communication？
