If A Variable Exists

03 October 2008 - 03:56 AM

is there a way to create an if/then statement based on whether or not a variable exists for a given object?

Vista Font Position

22 September 2008 - 03:52 AM

When I played my exe on Vista, i noticed that all my drawn text was shifted from where it was on xp and no longer fit in the text boxes i drew for them. Is this a common problem and does anyone know a fix for it?

Drawing Dynamic Shapes

21 September 2008 - 06:49 PM

is it possible to make a curved line that follows the path of a particle?

for example, if i set the path of a particle to a spiral, could I make it draw the spiral that's the shape of its path as it goes along it?

Writing In Names

21 September 2008 - 06:00 PM

I'm making a multiplayer game on a single pc (one player has keyboard controls, other mouse) and I want them to be able to type in their names and have them displayed on the screen.

Is there a way to do this without having to use the default gamemaker text input box, (ie. can I actually define where on the screen the text box is, what font, color, etc?)

Text Box Boundries

Is there a way to automatically create a line break in text when it passes a certain x value on the screen because its really hard to keep guessing and checking by running the game and seeing where I need to put a line break to keep text within a certain box.
