    GameMaker No Background Color Option in GMS2 Anymore?

    Is there not a way to set the background color for the entire room in the room editor anymore? There a way to tint a background, but that's not the same as drawing 1 color behind everything. That was very useful for games whose visual style had white space (not necessarily white). The manual...

    GML Making a door: image_index/mouse_pressed

    GameMaker The simplest thing isn't working...

    Idk, maybe I've been staring at this for too long, but this code should work, and it doesn't. if hspeed = 0 and vspeed = 0 { sprite_index = SPR_PlayerStatic; } The weirdest part is that my problem is that when I hit a wall, the animation continues, however when I lift the walk key...

    Opinion Updating Threads

    What's the point in going back to update a thread (Ex: Work in Progress Section) when your previous post is already like 5 - 7 pages into the forum already?? It would make sense if your post was bumped back up to the top of the section, but it doesn't even do that! How am I suppose to get...
