My intent in this post isn’t to write a tutorial that guides you to a complete understanding of where GMS writes its files, but I will explain how I found the location. There’s documentation that explains this in the manual, but even after reading it several times, it’s still not entirely clear where you should look to find a file. GameMaker runs sandboxed, so you can’t just write files anywhere you want. It’s complicated and not easy to understand.

This was pretty straightforward, except the part about where GameMaker writes the file. json file, and played through the game, going through two cycles of the 18 procedurally generated levels, so I could get the original sequence plus the level sequence from GE Mode. To that end, I just wrote up a little script that writes the level data to a. I became worried that the game was too sensitive to the RNG, and wanted to capture the level data so that I could re-generate any of the levels in the procedurally generated sequence if I wanted to, even if the game ends up getting modified in such a way that the number of RNG calls changes, which would otherwise screw up the level generation. The RNG sequence will vary if you die and play a new game without quitting/relaunching the game, but if you do quit/relaunch it will be the same sequence of levels every time. Fortunately, it turned out that those randomly generated levels aren’t too bad to play. Since the number of calls to the RNG in TARJECTORIES happens to be deterministic, this gives the game the same random procedurally generated levels each time the game is played. The output of the RNG is repeateable for a given seed, so the only variability from one run to another is the number of calls made to the RNG. The levels in TARJECTORIES are procedurally generated, using a lot of calls to the Random Number Generator.
