Now the problem here is that I have the camera panning when obj_player reaches the very edge of the camera. What I was expecting was the camera starting to pan when obj_player reaches the VERY MIDDLE of the screen, and when the camera reaches the edge of a room, obj_player will move to a...

I was wondering how I would make a switch in the GUI that can be called in an if statement to get its on-off position. I couldn't figure out how to store the on-off position properly.

I've added a volume adjustment to a game, and all is working. The BGM and SFX gain is lowered. But, with the BGM sounds I have in the default group "audiogroup_default" and I set the gain by choosing a percent using "audio_group_set_gain(audiogroup_default, 0.50, 0);" and so on. and I get the...
