So, today I found all new functions in gm:studio, so I noticed a few functions about facebook.
But how it work?
I know we need an app id (I made one facebook app just for testing porpouse)
but always return an error if I try to use facebook_login, when I try using facebook_status() return 0 so, how to use it?
Someone already know?
Thanks for reading.

I don't have my copy of Studio working yet, do to launch day bugs messing up with the licensing, but I do know to make Facebook games you have to have them hosted somewhere that allows a certain type of security coding which Facebook now requires. Not every host you find can handle that.

You have to look around on Facebook to see the information, they sure to have a tutorial somewhere.

So, I made a Heroku app using Facebook (PHP) (you can see it in here https://gmteste.herokuapp.com/)
and I Made a local test as they said, it works as well. But theres nothing where says how to use Facebook and Game Maker together, I just use init with appID and what now?
just put generated html file in the same folder as "server" doesn't work, how exactly I'm supposed to do it?

You have to create a page on Facebook, I believe listing it as a business, not personal, and then link to where you have uploaded your app at. And it has to allow SSI security settings, or whatever its called, for it to work.

I made a "app" but flash games are made using canvas, I think they call the game from external website and put inside of this canvas (exactly as I've made)
No one know exactly how it works right? :<

Thanks for all your answers anyway.

There is a Facebook Tutorial in the Tutorial section for Android and iOS.
