This function will automatically "wrap" an instance that has left the room on either the horizontal or vertical (or both) axis. You can specify a margin outside the edges of the room for this to occur, and when the instance has travelled outside of that margin GameMaker Studio 2 will automatically wrap it back into the room at the other side. Note that the instance must have a speed for wrapping to work, because the direction of wrapping is based on the direction of the motion.

move_wrap(true, false, sprite_width);
