What is the one where you can determine weither an object is x or y different for another.
For example lets say we have player object and another object, how do we figure out in code if the player's Y position is lower then the other objects?
I hope that makes sense.

i think this is what you are looking for
if player.y < obj_other.y
{
do whatever
}

can't you use:

if (obj_first.x <= obj_second.x or obj_first.x >= obj_second.x) 
{
//do this
}
if (obj_first.y <= obj_second.y or obj_first.y >= obj_second.y) 
{
do this
}

seems simple but no I have no idea sorry.

I don't think there's a function for that and you have to do it manually.
Or were you talking about distance_to_point?

I think Jlm07 is right, none of those functions work, But I have not idea how to code this manually.

well if you described what you want this for we would be able to help you more. because i am having a hard time seeing what you need from this.

as far as i can see
!place_meeting(x,y,obj_other)
or
if !x=obj_other.x and !y=obj_other.y
{
}

is about all i can come up with to help you out

Well, the above methods should work:

if ((y) > (another_object.y))
{
//do something
}
//if y is larger than another_object's y position
//the perform events
