Help with a script that is not working

[Casityny]

image_speed = 0;
if (position_meeting(obj_cursor.x, obj_cursor.y self))
{
image_index = 1;
}
else
{
image_index = 0;
}
Is this code accurate? I'm coding a game and can't seem to make this script work...

Not quite sure what your trying to do/accomplish.

1. My guess is your trying to change the image_index with the mouse over it? Use:
position_meeting(mouse_x, mouse_y, self) in that objects step event.

2. If your trying to draw a cursor for text it needs to be in the draw event.

3. If this is an actual script for an object that is checking for object cursor you will still need to call this script in the step event of the object that is supposed to be running it. Then again you could just put it in the step event to see if it works...

Otherwise a better explanation and/or code would help.

if (position_meeting(obj_cursor.x, obj_cursor.y self))

Look at this line very carefully and you will see an error (hint: you are missing a comma right before self). To be honest, the IDE should be throwing this as an error anyway but as you have not provided any more information than "I can't seem to make this script work", we are having to guess at what your actual problem is.
