    Is there any better naming of resources?

    Hi, I'm trying to name scripts somehow so I can easily assign them to objects as functions (like in other OOP languages). Is there any better option for naming them? I find it quite nonsense that in GMS 2 resources must have unique names regardless of folders, type of resource or something like...

    Question - IDE Room Editor - Inheritance issues

    So recently I wanted to try out room inheritance to make my project more manageable. I am new to using Game Maker 2 after prying myself away from Game Maker Studio 1.4 but here I am. However, I have found room inheritance to be quite infuriating and it has led me to ask a number of questions...

    Discussion IDE crashes silently after a variable amount of time

    Since at least two weeks ago I'm having random crashes in GMS2 with no error messages. These occur even if I'm not interacting with the program (it can crash on its own in the background). The behaviour is as if a gremlin inside the computer randomly the process at any random time. I have it...

    Bug, variable exists but these lines don't read it.

    So these variables aren't being recognized by the IDE for some reason, even though I am using them two lines afterward. I tried restarting the IDE and reloading the project but that didn't fix it unfortunately. My guess is that this is a bug related to the new warning system but i'm not sure.

     Bracket pair colorizer.

    Hello, I recently found this and I thought it would be a great addition by just allowing the option to exist. Currently, you can select the color for each element in your text editor, but this means different color for what would be the same elements.

    Question - IDE Keyboard shortcut for setting target and config?

    Hello! I'm looking for a way to set the target and config via keyboard shortcut. Really the goal is to be able to set these two via an external keypress script. If there is another option - ie. via GMS2 file modification in a build file or something, I'm open to that as well. Thanks, Chris

    Question - IDE Suggestion: Cursor movement

    With many text editors, such as the one used on this forum, pressing down when there is no lines below the current one will bring the cursor to the end of the last line. In game maker it does nothing. Is there anyway to fix this?
