Legacy GM Stickman/Ragdoll Fighting

Hello everyone,

I want some help with the game that I work on, I want to implement those stickman fighting kind of sloppy ragdolls with the funny and weird movement and waving swords.
I know that I must use physics, but I haven't worked with gamemaker physics a lot.
I would really appreciate any help or any demo that I could use to learn the joints and the physics that I have to use.

Again thanks for your time and have a nice day!

So... Should I guess that it is not possible to create that effect in game maker? Anyway, even if you are simply reading this thanks...

Use physics revolute joints to make your ragdoll stickman. You can then control how far the stick man's joints can move and control their movement. It might take a bit of experimenting but the game you describe is totally possible.
