* SOLVED *


I have 3 objects; obj_controller, obj_block_move_left and obj_block_move_right.

In the Create event of obj_controller I have the following Execute code:

// Speed of moving blocks
global.moveblock = random_range(1,2);

In the Create events of the other two objects I have the Move Fixed drag-and-drop icon, with "Speed: global.moveblock"

It runs fine in 8.1 (in which it was originally written in), but in Studio I get the following error:

#################################################################
VMError!! Occurred - Push :: Execution Error - Variable Get moveblock
at Object.obj_block_move_left.Create.0 (line -1) - <unknown source line>
#################################################################

Anyone know what's happening?

Please, report this issue at http://bugs.yoyogames.com

If you wont report the but, it cannot be noticed, and not fixed.

I did, many times. I've now solved it though, I deleted the controller object from the room then put it back again and it now works(?)

Sounds like the create event of the block object(s) was getting fired before the controller object was created. I'm guessing the order you placethings in the room matters (actually, pretty sure that is the case).

Odd, of all the stuff I've made in 6 / 7 / 8 & 8.1 I've never had that happen, thanks for the heads up.

Ya wagdog is right. I ran into this exact same thing on Saturday! We just need to get used to how GMS works and it'll be fine! Kind of tough for us who've been using GM waaay back at 6!
