At some time when making your game you will need to use text. Text in games is dealt with by using the string functions (a string is just another way of saying a line of text) and GameMaker Studio 2 has a complete set of functions that permit you to manipulate strings in many ways, including the insertion of one string in another, the copying of strings and the ability to parse strings for the digits or the letters that they contain. In general a string can only be created by adding text within double quotes ' ' and single quote strings are not accepted, nor can you split the string over multiple lines and expect GameMaker Studio 2 to render it as if the line breaks were newlines (unless a string literal @ identifier is used, as explained below).

It is worth noting that there are certain conventions that you can use when creating strings, mostly concerned with using escape characters. These are characters that are preceded by a ' symbol. So, for example, if you wanted to put quotation marks within a string you would have something like this:

• 1 answer 2 views. Game maker get id of colliding object. Problem: Game maker get id of colliding object. Asked Jul 27 Isac.
• A copy of Game Maker Studio 2.x; A Game Maker Studio 2 License (there is a free trial, but we prefer you use 'Desktop', only $99.99 retail. DO NOT USE CRACKED VERSIONS, CAN CORRUPT YOUR BUILDS/LOSE PROGRESS) The latest version of the engine; A basic understanding of GML (Game Maker Language) If you have all of these, then you are ready to.

str = 'Hello'World';

Parents need to know that Super Mario Maker 2 is a game about making games exclusively for the Nintendo Switch. It provides players with tools and tutorials to create, edit, and share their own side-scrolling Super Mario levels, encouraging players to be imaginative while learning the basics of game design.

GameMaker Studio 2 also has full four byte wide Unicode character support, allowing you to decode and encode Unicode characters in the upper bounds of the standard (including - but not limited to - emoji). To deal with Unicode characters, you can use the ' to precede any Unicode literal - digits of hex preceded a 'u', for example 'u00e2' for 'á'- where the digits are the number of the Unicode character. When working with Unicode in this way, you need to be aware of the fact that GameMaker Studio 2 will interpret all digits following the 'u', so if you wanted to write 'áa' for example, you should use:

'u00e2a'
or
'u00e2u61'
or
'u00e2' + 'a'

as just using 'u00e2a' would actually result in the Unicode character 'ส' (essentially becoming 'ue2a').

GameMaker Studio 2 can also handle any hexadecimal literal - normally written as digits of hex following '0x', for example '0xff', where the digits are the number of the character to use. In GameMaker Studio 2 these are written using 'x' and then the hex value. These and other predefined escape characters are listed in the table below:

You can also create verbatim string literals by preceding the whole string with the @ character:

var test = @'
Line breaks
over multiple
lines
';

The above code will render the string over multiple lines as if there was a line break escape character included. A verbatim string literal is similar to previous GameMaker version string literals but they also use double or single quotes and must be prefixed by an @ symbol, they can be broken over multiple lines in the code file and they DO NOT support escaped characters i.e. @'HelloWorld' will NOT try to escape the W on World and will be stored verbatim. Note though that when using string literals like this, you will need to break the string if you wish to include quotation marks as part of the string, ie:

var test = @'Hello ' + '' + @'World' + ''

Another thing to note is that the unicode character 9647 (▯) is used to substitute any missing glyphs that you may have in your designated font when rendering it in the draw event. So if your font doesn't have, for example, the ° symbol, then writing 90° will actually produce 90▯.

Other than those functions that relate specifically to strings, the Windows target also permits you to use access the clipboard to get and set text information:

• clipboard_has_text
  
• clipboard_get_text
  
• clipboard_set_text
