If the person had a smartphone or something like that they could download the
game off yoyogames.com

Topic: Unofficial Help and Q&A / I NEED HELP

There are some simple drag and drop functions that allow you to save and load
games. Like michaelpw said, saving/loading in a room with a lot of stuff going
on isnt advisable.

Topic: Unofficial Help and Q&A / more help

Read the GML tutorial (all of it). There is a part on easy gravity for
platformers in there. Then you will be able to use GML coding in your games
(really useful).

Try this link for GML help. As for your other problems, it would be best if you
just dabbled a bit in game maker to understand how things work. Just try out
some of the simple functions. Also, the text documents that come with the
tutorials by yoyogames--read them! They explain many different fuctions of game
maker. Hanging around the help sections is useful too, because you pick up some
interesting knowledge. Good luck!

Topic: General Chat / This may help about everyone who needs GML help!

tht picture shows a piece of code. The two circled buttons are the 'check for
syntax errors' button and the 'help file' button. Each of them has answers to
literally ALL gml problems. The checking button will tell you if your code is
messed up, and then why it is messed up. Makes it easier to fix >.> The help
file has an index tab on it. Tht tab will let you search through a library of
GML sections or code help ALL by Mark Overmars.

Topic: General Chat / Post youre tips and tricks :D

yah u can do tht, it was the second set of code in my earlier post...

Topic: General Chat / Post youre tips and tricks :D

Hmm.....
view_hborder=view_wview/2 -obj_player.sprite_width
view_vborder=view_hview/2 -obj_player.sprite_height
w/e sprite u put in the 'obj_player' is always in the center of the screen.
Also, it needs to be run after every sprite change.
AND!!!
spin+=10
x=obj_Player.x+lengthdir_x(obj_Player.sprite_width*1,spin)
y=obj_Player.y+lengthdir_y(obj_Player.sprite_height*1,spin)
tht makes the object u run it with go in a cirlce around w/e sprite u put in for
'obj_player.'

Make the alarm relative to a much larger number. See, your room speed is, by
default, 30. MT was making it so tht it would shoot 1 bullet per second. You
could make it 60, 90, 120, etc. And the bullets would come less often. See?

for object bob:
COMPILATION ERROR in code action
Error in code at line 1:
