how do you make a menu on gamemaker? and character select?

this has been asked before all u do is make a room :hmph:

lol duh



okay that was obvious, but for the char select how do u get something to appear by hovering over something (best example being in SSB or SSF, take the plyr chip over mugshot and have character appear at bottom of screen)

well that would need coding (ill tell you both ways) but an easy way most people do it is to use event left click and then say create instance of an object (not event) and make the creation of the player (make character with sprite but no events) and then tell it to be created where you want it. OR you could make the chip and press the center button on the sprite thing for the origin. then use the event create then make the action set variable (put any thing for the name of it except global variables like lives) to false then make an event left pressed (or any mouse button pressed) and say set variable (variable name for the thing i just said) to true. then make an event (any mouse button released) and set the variable to false. after that make a step event (just step not step end or step begin) and say execute a piece of code and put the code below in :mrgreen: REPLACE "VARIABLE HERE" TO THE NAME OF THE VARIABLE TO YOU MADE.
Code:
if VARIABLE HERE = true {x=mouse_x y=mouse_y}


uhm. mmkay. ill try that :D first way first!

sorry if its hard to understand (i edited my post and made it a little easier to understand)

o well thats easy go to the room and select (make sure advanced mode is on if not select advanced mode under prefrences) and select the tab views and then say enable use of views and visible when room starts. then under itll say object following and then set the object that want the camera to follow and then set Hbor to 500 and Vbor to 500 also. (i ended quote pyramid due to quote limit)

well... no. see lets say there's an attack that does 5 damage you have 1 HP since it does more than the amount of health it makes the health negative and wont take away a life. so that means make the thing if health is smaller than 1, -1 live.
