Hi, i got a huge room i want to tile with grass as i am making a forest level..
im trying to make a script to do that for me , i played around with tile_add and some for loops without mutch sucsess, i managed to tile from pos 0.0 and 0/32 0/64 etc and the same on Y axis bit not fill the room. coud someone point me in the right direction?

for(var i = 0; i < room_height/32; i++)
{
for(var ii = 0; ii <room_width/32; ii++)
{
tile_add(background, left, top, width, height, ii*32, i*32, depth);
}
}
I think this will work.

it works but uses ALOT of CPU :D

is there a way i can make the tiles stick in my room after i game quit? :P

Not if you set everything up in code. However, you can do something else. Go to the room and open the backgrounds tab. Maker sure visible when room starts is checked and then choose the grass tile as the background. It should automaticly tile itself to fill the room. This will probably work if all you want to do is fill the room with the repeating grass tile.
