Collision errors with ground tiles and platform objects?

[bigtunacan]

Stupid bug; I fixed it, but I don't know how to delete my own posts?

----------

I'm trying to make have my character jump and land on either static unmoving tiles in a tile layer, or on platform objects that are moving around.

I've screwed something up in my collision detections though. Landing on "tiles" works correctly, but when landing on platform "objects" the player stops midair way above where the platform is actually located.

if(falling == true) {
    if(sprite_index != spr_santa_falling) {
        sprite_index = spr_santa_falling;
    }
  
    // TODO: Finish this and see why jumping is wonky
    if(tilemap_get_at_pixel(tilemap_ground, x, bbox_bottom + jumpspeed) != 0){
        falling = false;
        sprite_index = spr_santa_walk;
      
        var i = 0;
        while(tilemap_get_at_pixel(tilemap_ground, x, bbox_bottom + i) == 0) {
            i = i + 1;
        }
        y = y + i;
    }
    // Check if Santa is colliding with a platform object (brick)
    else if(place_meeting(bbox_left, bbox_bottom + jumpspeed, obj_brick2) ||
        place_meeting(bbox_right, bbox_bottom + jumpspeed, obj_brick2)) {
          
        var i = 0; 
        while (!(place_meeting(bbox_left, bbox_bottom + i, obj_brick2) ||
               place_meeting(bbox_right, bbox_bottom + i, obj_brick2))) {
              
                i = i + 1;
                y = y + 1;
        }

        falling = false;
        //y = y + i;
        sprite_index = spr_santa_walk;
        show_debug_message("I was");
        show_debug_message(i);
    } else {
        y = y + jumpspeed;
    }

}

You don’t - others can learn no matter how “dumb” you think the mistake is.
