Draw event:

draw_sprite_ext(sprite_index, image_index, round(x), round(y), image_xscale, image_yscale, image_angle, image_blend, image_alpha)

:O Thank you! You are my hero... oh my... I can't believe I didn't think of that. You've saved my life... :D

I think I finally got it! Thanks so much! I'll try it out in a moment and let you know how it goes. You're awesome... I'll be sure to give you credit when I finally get around to finishing my game :)

Thanks. So I have all the components. Now I just need to put them in the logical order. Can you help me out and tell me if this is right? I understand all of the code, I'm just not sure where to place everything.

1. define_Inventory: create global variable "Inventory"
2. create_Inventory: create inventory list
3. Put the inventory information (name, description, sprite)... where? Do I put it in the room creation code, or the create_Banana, or... where?
4. Use add_Item_To_Inventory when there's something to add...
5. Use remove_Item_from_Inventory when there's something to remove...
6. Use position_Inventory_Item after some change in the inventory

Am I right?

And finally, what should I all put in the room creation code?

That's all my simple mind needs to know! :)

Thank you, thank you. You have been most kind. But I don't understand what you mean when you say derivation. What's the purpose of define_Item and create_Item? Are they the parents of all other items? I don't see what in the code makes them parents. And do I need to create a new script for every item (define_apple, create_apple, define_pear, create_pear, etc.)? Sorry, I'm still not the smartest when it comes to GML :) But you have been a great help! Thanks for taking the time to help a poor soul like me out :)

OK, thanks. Last question - how would I display the information in the draw script in a simple way?
