DS Game Maker - Fan Forum

These are some essential DSGM Coding Documents that will help you go beyond just using the default action blocks in DSGM and actual write your own code!

I happen to have had these backed up before the original DSGM Forum went down so I hope they'll help whoever needs them or wants to learn.

If you have never coded before, you can still do a lot with action blocks alone, but at some point, you likely find they can take a while to scroll through and you may have difficulty re-ordering them later due to DSGM's somewhat restrictive interface .

In fact, writing code is essentially the same as using blocks, except you have to type them, and there can't be typos otherwise the game cannot run.

Thank you for sharing that! i'll download these at some point and put them on the website eventually

Could anyone share some coding examples? I would like to see code in action. For example, I declare a global variable in an object by code:

declare Public speed As integer = 0;

and when I try to acces that variable from same object, it gives error: GameWorks.h:57:37: error: 'speed' undeclared (first use in this function)

how do I call that variable using different events of the same object? I also tried:
[Me].speed
[Me]."speed"
"speed"

i'm strictly a 4.9 user.. so i know nothing about 5.12.. but i'm sure someone will answer your question soon... some people are on vacation so i can't say when.. but soon i hope
