Usage

GameMaker: Studio 2

  • Checkout my tutorial on setting up your GameMaker Studio: 2 for Sublime!
  • Name your source file with extension gml. For example, example.gml. Syntax highlighting will be applied automatically.
  • Partially type keywords, built-in variables, and names of user-created resources to trigger autocompletion. To enable user-created resources completions, make sure your project root directory is opened in Sublime.
  • Partially type function names to trigger function snippets. If multiple parameters are avaliable, TAB (↹) to go to next one. Most of the built-in functions are avaliable as snippets.
  • Other custom snippets are: for, if, else, repeat, switch, while, with, and print that writes show_debug_message.
  • To indent your gml file, use: Command Palette (⌘⇧P) ➤ Indentation: Reindent Lines.
  • To create a new script, use: Command Palette (⌘⇧P) ➤ GameMaker: New Script

GameMaker: Studio 1.4 or earlier:

  • You need to copy & paste manually between Sublime and GameMaker: Studio.
  • Name your source file with extension gmll, the extra 'l' stands for legacy. For example, example.gmll.
  • User-created resources autocompletion is not supported.
  • Everything else is pretty much the same as GameMaker: Studio 2.
