Thanks for the tutorial. I already knew what an array was, but this helped me understand how to apply it.

How can i create an array in GML Visual?

Positive feedback--- Next time, put the object in the room and test the room so we can see the difference. Maybe even make some step event code for the up/down arrow keys that change the character you're playing as.
This way we also get a visual of what's going on and people may even understand it better.

I understood what you meant btw. But great video non the less! =]

For me arrays are for making inventories player bag, chests, merchant buy sell table.
They are for making rows and columns and store data in it like objects in game maker like items.
Sadly I know how to make one in C pretty simple, but I’m struggling so much in gml because I don’t understand in depth all the function keywords used for making a fully functioning inventory system with stacked items and all.
So here I am. Like subscribe I hope and wish for more detailed educational content on 2024 newer version of game maker because sadly I can’t open old projects properly to copycat inv systems and learn.
