Instances:

When an object is dragged into a room it becomes an instance. Multiple instances of an object can exist in the same room, each instance can be modified separately and do different things.

Creating:

Drag an object onto an instance layer in the room editor.

Create at runtime using the functions instance_create_depth() and instance_create_layer().

Add it to a sequence in the sequence editor, then add the sequence in the room editor or through code.

Add it to a room that it's not currently in using room_instance_add().

Alarms:

Objects:

Lets you define how something in your game behaves (ex. player or enemy). Essentially the base template for an instance. Are never present in a room directly, instances of objects are placed in rooms.

If an object is changed none of its current instances will change, only instances created after the change.

Functions:

Events:

Moments in game loop that happen based on what you have programmed.
To add an event click the add event button.

Create:

Code that is ran when an instance of that object is first created. Good for initializing variables, start timelines, or set paths etc.
