This forum is for advanced users who are familiar with GML code. All posters in this forum must have reasonable programming experience, and be able to read and understand the manual. If you are just starting GM, or have little programming experience, then use Novice Q&A.

Provide Sample Code
You MUST provide a sample of the GML code you are using. Explain what you have tried to solve the problem, and provide a clear statement of your goal. DO NOT post topics just asking for code or examples.

The code samples MUST be specific to your problem. Provide ONLY the information relevant to the problem. Try to reduce the problem to a specific piece of code, and explain clearly what you are trying to do.

Indent your code using an accepted standard (here). Indented code is easier to understand and improves your chances for help.

Use Descriptive Titles
Topic titles should give readers a good idea of what's inside. For example, if you're having a problem with sprite transparency, then say something like:

TITLE Sprite Transparency Problems
Sub-Title Error using the draw_set_alpha()

Topics with names like "Is this possible?"... or names like "how can I do this?" will be removed.

Write Clearly
All posts -- including replies -- must be written clearly. If you cannot use reasonable spelling, grammar and punctuation, then DO NOT post here. If you have difficulty with English, then ask another member to help you.

Avoid Duplicate Posting
Do NOT post the same question in both Advanced and Novice Q&A. If you already posted in Novice, and you feel your topic belongs here, then report it and request a move. Do NOT re-post it on your own.
