    Hello.This code same but it wont create stone. No errors.
    var sh = (room_height / 2) – floor(random(room_height / 3));

    sh = (sh / 32) * 32;

    var ah = sh;

    var dirt_level;
    var stone_level;
    var l;

    for(xx = 0; xx < room_width; xx += 32)
    {
    instance_create(xx, ah, object_grass);

    dirt_level = ((room_height – ah) /32) * 32;
    stone_level = ((room_height) /32) * 32;

    //dirt level
    for(yy = ah; yy < dirt_level; yy += 32)
    {
    instance_create(xx, yy + 32, object_dirt);
    l = yy;
    }

    //stone_level
    for(yy = l; yy < stone_level; yy += 32)
    {
    instance_create(xx, yy + 32, object_stone);
    }

    ah += choose(32, -32, 0);
    }

    I know this may be unsolvable or helpable. But I want to have grass corner blocks which obviously go on the corners and edges when the terrain changes? Can anyone help me in doing this please?

    t is not completely random, as you see, the up and bottom sides are kind of mirrored. It is like creating straight line in random y position(assigned to grid) and generate blocks the same count up and down. 🙂

    I know this might be a stupid question, but what does the "xx" mean? Like I know how x is horizontal stuff, but what does it mean when there are 2 of them next to each other?

    Thankyou really much. It helped me a lot. Im new to game maker, I tried to make my own, but always failed, because I don't know all functions and how creatively and correctly use them. This is good way to learn. Well some things I don't understand well. how yy and xx works and from where you got that variables, what and how exactly every level algorithm works. I tried different ways to get rid of grass growing on stone but I couldn't!
