Just picked this up, thanks for making it!

Are create events supposed to update? I scoured the documentation and forum thinking they just aren't supported but couldn't find anything. Changes to the create event are registered ("updated obj_test:Create_0 (0ms)." and "Reloaded obj_test:Create_0.") but don't appear in game. Other events work just fine.

I'm not in debug mode and tested this in a new project as well as my own. 2.3+. Sorry if I missed something.

Create events do update, but, as you might expect, execute when a new instance of the object is created. If you want to change variables and see them update, do so in step event.
