Description

This function can be used to set the game speed. You can set this in one of two ways - as either game frames per second (FPS) or as microseconds per game frame (MPF) - using one of the following two constants:

Constant	Description
gamespeed_fps	Sets the game speed using frames per second.
gamespeed_microseconds	Sets the game speed using microseconds per frame.

So, for example, a game speed of 30 frames per second would be 33333 microseconds per game game frame, which would then be expressed by this function as either:

game_set_speed(30, gamespeed_fps);

or:

game_set_speed(33333, gamespeed_microseconds);

Syntax:

game_set_speed(speed, type);

Returns:

N/A

Example:

if os_browser == browser_not_a_browser
    {
    game_set_speed(60, gamespeed_fps);
    }
else
    {
    game_set_speed(30, gamespeed_fps);
    }

The above code checks to see if the game is running in a browser and sets the game speed accordingly as an FPS value.
