    I have no way to access my files from GitHub within my project, despite the files being in my project folder.

    I have been trying to do research on this topic for what feels like hours, and I have no idea why Gamemaker is designed this way. I just received important files from one of my collaborators, and I was going to try to check out what he had done. When I went to open it, the files were nowhere to...

    Development Integration with Github Actions?

    On Github I have 2 repositories for my marketplace assets, but I was wondering if it'd be possibly to check a script for syntax errors and other errors and warnings, like I have in another repository for another project: https://github.com/AceKiron/School

    I've been using git and github as backups for awhile, but they were initially so difficult to work (at least in part to me not understanding how things work) that my main backup method was just copy the whole file into a separate repo rather than directly connect the GMS 2 folder to git hub...
