    Loading sprites

    Good afternoon! A small question. I heard that to optimize in Game Maker 2, you need to load sprites programmatically every time you load a room, and not load them through the IDE. Sprites downloaded directly into the project loads game's memory a lot? If so, then how can i load sprites right way?
