What are the gamemaker alarm limitations?

I'm a little confused about this one. Is it a limit of eleven alarms in my game? or in an object? or an instance of an object?

Thanks a million.

Solution

  • Every Instance of an Object in GML has 12 alarms that can be used (starting from 0 and ending at 11).

    PGmath's Sggestion:

    If you really need more alarms you can make your own by having a variable which you manually decrement by 1 each step, then test if equal to 0 to perform an action.
