Marl3x27795yOh yes! Saw someone code in Gamemaker and he was really confused because some mathematical operation was behaving weird. I read the docs and found that GML uses a specific way to calculate something. Thats just something you have to know. :D
I hope you meant Game Maker Language :P -
lxmcf204105y@Marl3x you ar correct, if you are compiling using a native compiler it uses a very different mathematical pipeline compared to the VM compiler... Plus no classes, no namespaces and the list goes on
It is a good language but I can't wait till they release the revised language version that fixes a tonne of these quirks -
lxmcf204105y@Marl3x yeah it adds a tonne of new features and has 'classes' known as lightweight objects, tie this with the 'new' operator and giving the user more control over what processes do what, might get me keen to work in GameMaker again

Marl3x27795y@lxmcf Cool, sadly I wamt to develop 3D Games so GM is not an option. Will get to know Unitys quirks :/
-
lxmcf204105y@Marl3x yeah the 3D in GameMaker is quite powerful but not really worth working with, unity is probably your best bet
