Advanced splitscreen

Hi everyone,

I'm creating a coop platformer and I would like to add an advanced split screen.
This includes that when the 2 players are too far away from each other there will be a splitscreen and if they are close to each other you can see both players in 1 big view.

I'm not sure how to accomplish this, does anyone know how to do this or where to find information about this?

Thanks in advance!

Ps. I'm using Gamemaker Studio 2

Alright, let me give you a global idea:
When you do have to draw split screen, just use surfaces.
So you can look into view_surface_id.
When you've done that you can simply draw things to the right surfaces.
