Hi
Fledgeling developer here! I'm just starting to learn Gamemaker studio 2 but I am interested in learning how to optimize my games from the getgo! I have been reading the basic stuff in the manual about binary operations and bitwise operations (bitwise and, or, not and EOR).
As the manual pointed out. Don't use an if statement if you don't have to! This got me thinking, is it possible to use the binary bitwise operators to do collision checking instead of using if statements?
If you could point me to the right direction it would be much appreciated! Which sections in the manual should I read? Are there any good YouTube (or similar) channels that cover code optimization for beginners? Any books you would recommend for beginners?
Sincerely
Daniel
