What's new in this version:

- January’s 2023.1 release sees a number of tool changes designed to speed up project-loading and importing assets, to stop a number of long-term source control quality-of-life issues, and to reduce download/install sizes for the runtimes. There are also a number of important fixes for the Debugger crashing and using up too much memory (or mis-reporting in-game RAM usage on some platforms), plus important stability fixes for the MQTT server if you have GameMaker behind a firewall.
- As you can see, there are a number of very important changes and additions in this release, so it’s very important that you do read these release notes very carefully before you update
- Within the 2023.1 IDE we have made a large number of fixes or improvements to Feather; the Image Editor has a new shortcut for converting clipboard content to being a brush you can reuse; there is now the ability to add all sprite types to your Texture Groups lists and then load/unload these extra texture pages at the same time in-game; and so you can debug issues more easily there are now HTML5 preferences for pretty-printing your code and the ability for extensions to create custom ADB logging tags when running Android games.
- On the runtimes side, 2023.1 brings the introduction of several powerful yet easy-to-understand new features, all aimed at making it easier to create a good-looking and quality-feeling game: the new ”Move And Collide” collisions function can greatly reduce the amount of code required to create player character collisions really quickly; Signed Distance Field ("SDF") font support allows you to scale fonts up/down and maintain excellent quality levels, so no need to ship multiple copies of the same font at different point sizes; and the new "Tremolo" audio effect allows you to more easily achieve this type of advanced audio functionality. There are also several major changes or improvements to existing functionality - like the behaviours of statics, which now know their inheritance chain and allow you to check whether a certain function is declared.
