Switching to a completely new engine is not really possible unless I want to add like at least a year (maybe more) of extra development time.


I don't know why it runs into a segmentation fault, the executable file I get when "compiling" for Linux is from like 2016 since it's actually just a VM that interprets the code.

I haven't gotten the actual compiler to work for Linux yet and likely won't get it to work either since it's so old at this point.

So what I'm saying with all of this is that the engine I'm using will always produce a very old executable for Linux, which is likely why things don't always work.

The reason for this is that I'm using an old version of the engine: Game Maker Studio v1.4 (GMS).

And I can't promise anything but I may or may not have access to GMS 2 in the future which is a lot more updated and very likely fixes a lot of issues like this.


And you could always try the Windows version using Wine or something similar, I've heard that works for some people, other than that, I don't think there's much I can do right now.
