Runtime instance inspector for GMS1


Setup

1. Add the files in the right order: objDebugList first, everything else after
2. Call scrDebugInspectorInitialize with the name of the global for determining whether the game has been started example:

scrDebugInspectorInitialize("gameStarted")

3. Run the game and click on the screen

• Middle mouse button brings up a searchable list of instances in the room
• Left mouse button will inspect all objects under the cursor
• Right mouse button will quit out of the currently open lists

Other setup

The other two arguments for the initialization function are optional but nice to have.

• debug_key: Sets a keyboard key that must be held before its possible to bring up the inspector using mouse buttons
• font: Font to use instead of the default font. Monospace works best.
