Shadow behind a moving object

[GRANDface Dev]

Hello,

I'm new to GameMaker and I don't know if this is supposed to happen or not, or how to potentially fix it.
There's an object that follows the mouse position. And while it moves there is a wierd shadow constantly showing behind it.
I set the background color of the room to green.
The more faster the object moves, it's more visible and stretches out more.
On the video it's a bit less visible, but i hope you can see it.
It happends to me in every project since I change the background color, or add some tiles.

Thanks for all the help.

It's not GameMaker, it's the refresh rate of your monitor. Same thing goes for the video; select random frames throughout and you'll see no shadow.

No shadow on my screen. Looks smooth.

It's as BattleRifle indicated. And this is often a symptom of lower quality monitors.

There are several monitor tests online. Here's one, is the UFO creating a shadow on your monitor?

Thanks for the link.
The UFO isn't creating a shadow for me, but it's blurry.

I tried different UFO test, and I could definitelly see the shadow behind it.

Take a look at this topic, and the one I linked to in that topic as well - it took a similar route as this one:

GML - Looking for a smooth framerate

Hi, I am looking for a fresh framerate for my game, when I started the project I recall things looking good, now that I put in some enemies in and added a sweet camera, everything is a bit choppy when I move my character who has an hsp clamp of 7 and the game runs at 60fps, any ideas? Thank you...

The short version is that nothing is wrong with your game or with GameMaker Studio. The source is, as others have said, your monitor. The only way to resolve it is getting a better one, and by that, I mean one with a fast response time and high refresh rate. Both of these contribute towards reducing blur.

Oh I see, thanks for the help .
