simple question, is there a way to see all the code that went into an object without having to click and look into each event one at a time?

Right-click on an object > Open All Event Scripts

Implement the Step() and Draw() or other Event function in the Create Event.
Just Put the Step() in the Step event, and Draw() in the draw event.
So you can leave all the event alone and keep your attention to the creation code.

I mean, I guess you could do this if you don't use any parent objects with any kind of event inheritance, or if you really want to have separate function names for absolutely every object in your game. But this sounds like the advice of someone who didn't want to use Game Maker but couldn't afford the game engine they did want. It's an anti-pattern and shouldn't be done.

In GMS1.4 there's a "show information" button that showed all code from an object (in plaintext, not editable) but I don't remember if such a thing exists in GMS2.

Wow, I haven't seen that yet. Great!

Does it? I just joined today and I couldn't understand a word of it. I can't tell what's good advice and what's bad.
