Legacy GM Why does nothing happen when I left click?

[prithvidiamond]

Hello,
Below is the code(script) that is executed in the step event.
MY QUESTION IS : Why does nothing happen when I left click?

code:

//step event
if(mouse_check_button(mb_left))
{
with (instance_position(mouse_x, mouse_y, obj_2))
{
if (sprite_index == spr_fr_wm && fruit == 0)
{
points += 1
}
}
}
script_execute(scr_draw_obj1);
script_execute(scr_draw_obj2);

if(mouse_check_button(mb_left))
{
with (instance_position(mouse_x, mouse_y, obj_2))
{
if (sprite_index == spr_fr_sr && fruit == 1)
{
points += 1
}
}
}
script_execute(scr_draw_obj1);
script_execute(scr_draw_obj2);

if(mouse_check_button(mb_left))
{
with (instance_position(mouse_x, mouse_y, obj_2))
{
if (sprite_index == spr_fr_sb && fruit == 2)
{
points += 1
}
}
}
script_execute(scr_draw_obj1);
script_execute(scr_draw_obj2);

if(mouse_check_button(mb_left))
{
with (instance_position(mouse_x, mouse_y, obj_2))
{
if (sprite_index == spr_fr_rs && fruit == 3)
{
points += 1
}
}
}
script_execute(scr_draw_obj1);
script_execute(scr_draw_obj2);


Please help, any suggestions is really appreciated.

Check if conditions in the "if" statements are ever being fulfilled (use show_message() or a similar function to check).

Other than that, I could use a bit more information in order to help you out: Is "points" a local or a global variable? And what, in fact, is supposed to happen?

Also, I'd be careful with the "with (instance_position(...))" structure because you'll get unpredictable results if there are no instances at that particular position.

If you ask me it looks like it is not being fulfilled because no points are being added but I need that is looks into which sprite is clicking on if a variable is equal to the value.

Please leave your suggestions!

Note that when you use the "with" statement like that you will add points to obj_2's and not the object calling the script above.

If you want to refer to the object calling this code, you can use the other keyword. So it'd be other.points if it's a variable of the object calling this code.
