So, I've done all I can to try and get this working, but I cannot, for the life of me, figure out how.

Basically, the objects go from their starting point to their ending point in a certain amount of beats, at a certain tempo (beats per minute). The program must also keep the fps in mind. That's the part that I think is challenging. Anyways, here's my markup so far. This is in the objects Step event. global.playStart is active for one frame to get the base speed, and global.play is on until it reaches the end point.

The "dot" is what location the user is on. Pretty much ignore those, that's not what I need help with. The points to move to are user defined and stored in the (array coord[global.dot,1] (x) , array coord[global.dot,2] (y)).

if (global.playStart) {
    distance=point_distance(x,y,coord[global.dot+1,1],coord[global.dot+1,2]);
    moveTime=global.beatsTo[global.dot+1]/(global.tempo/60);
}

if (global.play) {
    moveSpeed=distance/(fps*moveTime);
    move_towards_point(coord[global.dot+1,1],coord[global.dot+1,2],moveSpeed);
}

The only problem is... the equation isn't right. I was fairly confident this would work, but it's very wrong. xD I would really appreciate help with this. If you're confused about anything (I'm really bad at explaining things, sorry), please ask. I will gladly clarify.

Crap, I accidentally posted this in the Tutorial zone. :S

I need the program to read the lines of people logging in and out, subtract the in from out, and add the total for each user. I'm at a complete loss of where to start. I haven't actually used text files, so I'm a complete n00b (in this subject, at lease). Any ideas?

Here is a snippet of a chat log.

Anyone know a script that could allow the AI to shoot an arrow at an object?
like

arrow_init(x,y,gravity,power);

EDIT: THIS IS NOT A VIRUS! I HAVE A HORRID MEMORY AND IT'S ACTUALLY A FRIEND'S GAME THAT THEY SENT ME! NOT A VIRUS!  

I was working a game with someone over skype and was looking for a file on my over-crowded desktop when I found this...

Now, my first thought was "cool icon!". My second [after I looked at the text] was "wait... WHAT?". I don't know for sure, and I'm not pointing any fingers, but is this [by any chance] a virus by a company called "marada studios"?

Has anyone else got this? I'm pretty sure it's game-maker related, as I only use this user name on the GMC.

Thanks for taking the time to read,
