Structs - correct GML

[jerob1995]

I am just curious if a struct needs a semi-colon ";" after the last curly bracket? The documentation example code uses it sometimes but not others and I was just wondering if one way is more correct?

// this
velocity = {
    x : 0,
    y : 0
};

// or this?
velocity = {
    x : 0,
    y : 0
}

Keep in mind that this line is really just a variable assignment with the value being a struct, and it's no different from how it usually works in this regard. Much like most of GML, a semicolon is not strictly required, but recommended as a good practice because other languages may require it.

In GML, the semi-colon is generally optional(though I don't like it). It is similar to the end of a line of code, not required, though better in general if you use them as a habit.
