Fun times!

• Assignment operators were being treated wrong because "self" is now no longer an instance ID and so it would fall through the normal checks for what to do, assigning the right-hand value only because it was still on the stack. There might be more of the kind.
• Global variables were inaccessible because only half of my bug was fixed,

I have uploaded a new build (1.0.25a) to address these.

This damn thing is the worst. At least now it partially works, but every time I recompile the game to change something in the Create event, it throws this exact same stupid error:

This is usually fixed by commenting out all "live" definitions, then restarting the server and the game, then uncommenting them again, but sometimes it just randomly persists. This thing pops up literally every time and I just end up wasting more time than I did before

My guess is that this is related to the server updating events it shouldn't update (in the log above it often writes "Reloaded oPlayer:Draw_0" even if I disabled reloading for the event and then threws this error)

Sometimes this occurs when I change something in code (it was 1 time), but mostly after recompiling and/or adding new events to live update

Please fix, this is extremely annoying

I tried seeing the code myself, but as it's artificially generated (correct me if I'm wrong, maybe I misunderstood that article), it appears impossible to manually fix anything

Hi again, yellow, now snippets aren't working. I've already sent the example project (it's literally a simplified version of the example code from the GMLive manual)

Fortunately, live_execute_string() is working fine, so I have an alternative for now (even tho you're saying it's far slower)

I've found some issue in console logs, but I don't know when it exactly happens:

Runtime error: [error] Variable <unknown_object>.i_id(101072, -2147483648) not set before reading it.

On line 40 in obj_event_questionplate there is:

creator.wait_for = _cutscene;

where "creator" and "_cutscene" are variables with ID of existing objects (_cutscene is just created few lines before).

Hmm, I've got some issues with live_call() in scripts. Does it work like in 2.2, or something changed?

I'm getting log that script is reloaded on Ctrl+S, but it seems to still run old code... Am I doing something wrong ?

So I found 2 more bugs (in the interpreter part of the extention rather than the live part)

1) show_message()

and some other stuff doesn't automatically convert real to string (original GM function does)

2) inst.value = other_value

doesn't work

luckily, as a user you can find workarouns (use variable_instance_set() and string() functions), but this still might be a bit annoying and hard to debug (it just silently crashes/doesn't execute code after a complile error)

Here's the example string: 

Not sure why, but apparently GMLive really doesn't like methods/functions, defined inside objects.

I had some cursed unreproducible issues on my production projects, then I hopped onto an empty project and faced some weird things there.
Sending the project. I may or may not have spent way too much time on it
