I hope I am not the only one here using Game Maker Studio to make games. Long story short after about 4 or 5 hours messing with arrays in GMS I suddenly can't run my game at all. The farthest it has gotten is displaying the splash screen and that is about it. Does anyone know about anything that could help me? I have already tried looking up solutions and have had 0 luck.

What exactly are you trying to do?

And to be able to help, I would need to see the code you used.

Try commenting out sections of code until it works again. If that doesn't work then there might be something else wrong. At that point I'd suggest starting a new project and adding the code from the previous code to it piece by piece in to help pinpoint what might be causing it should it mess up again.

I found out that it has to do with the player spawning. So I will go from there.

Thank you for the help, I figured out the problem and can continue with the game. Turns out I had to change a while statement to an if statement, and I found that out by chance so there is no telling what would have happened if I didn't comment out the code sooner.

That's cool. Yeah you would only ever use a while statement if you want a lot of different things to happen in one step.

May I ask what the game is you're working on?
