Debugger: [Mac IDE] On Intel Macs, debugging a macOS game repeatedly can cause a flickering "red text" in-game overlay #1938

Open iampremo opened 1 year ago

iampremo commented 1 year ago

Description

When using Mac IDE, if you run the debugger multiple times you can encounter a red overlay that flickers at the top of the project window. This flickering overlay then persists for the lifetime of that debug session (it seems).

This has only been reproduced on the Intel QA Mac in office.

Expected Change

Red overlay flicker should not appear on the game window.

Steps To Reproduce

  1. Open GM and import Fire Jump Template.
  2. Run the debugger multiple times, notice how occasionally on a debug run that a red overlay starts flickering at the top of the game window (roughly where the debug overlay bars would usually be).

How reliably can you recreate this issue using your steps above?

Rarely

Which version of GameMaker are you reporting this issue for?
