I have a few Qs.

1. How do you create your own variable (It keeps saying 'Error unknown variable')

2. How do you change the same sprite (like with the same sprite make it face left or right)

3. How do you ask for string or enter text for a character

4. How do you not have to make seperate rooms for certain combanations (Say I made my character have purple boots, a green hat, and red gloves. How could I change that in a seperate room with a different room. (I set in in one room, the next room appears for the gameplay))

5. How do you make One way walls (You can go through one way, and it's a wall the other way.)

6. How do you create a game online?

7. Do variables connect to only a single object or all objects?

2. sprite_index = //sprite

3. make a draw text function, and for the string part, but the string name

4. I have no clue what you mean

5. Iunno either

6. It's not easy. Go on gmc.yoyogames.com and search for 39dl Online DLL

ok... to re-answer some questions

1. make sure you use your own code saying
Code:
globalvar yourvarhere;
before you use that variable in gameplay
4. use "if" statements
6. if you can't code an entire game (a complicated one) in gml, then don't even think about it. If you can, pm me and i will help you
7. if you want the variable to work for a single object use
Code:
var yourvarhere;

if you want it to work anywhere in your game
Code:
globalvar yourvarhere;

1. Nope. Only Local Variables are in the blocks, use Code to do it.

2. If statements are statements that checks "if" a certain thing happens

ex.
Code:
if(reddStarr = sexeh)
{
  string answer = yes;
}
else
string answer = no

It checks if a certain command, string, w.e is on a certain state.
I just checked if ur sexeh or not.
If you are, it makes the string answer = yes.
If you aren't, you use else, to put what happens if you are not.


string answer = yes

You should write them down. It's like writting on a forum.

Try to check the game maker "help"; it's easier checking that than explaining it in here.

I tried that. It's still really confusing.

I have a few questions:

How do you make it so when you leave the battle room you get exp, and eventually level up.

Also, how do you make it add new skills at certain levels?

Well I just don't know what block you use... to enter the code... just say what it's called bacuase I know what to do but I don't know what block to use to enter a code...

How do I make a character go forward the way it's facing (If it's facing ^ it will go that way if you press up... If it's facing > It'll go that way when you press up)

I have another noob question. How do I make my character look like he/she is walking. I have only had experience with 1 frame sprites so it looks very bad I guess.

if you mean in other words that your character is stuck while walking, use a character mask.
