2.2 Game Maker
2.2.5 Conditional actions

Sometimes actions needs to be performed on complex conditions for which there is no event associated.

In these cases, the developer needs to write a special condition under which, the action will be performed.

And the game engine has to be instructed to check the condition at every possible moment.

When the condition is met, the action is performed. This offers great flexibility to the developer.

However, conditional actions are in the end actions that need to be linked to an event (this is how GameMaker works).

If the condition needs to be checked every time, then the event is naturally, the "step" event.

And the action is simply a piece of program that additionally checks for the condition.
