Small update and source code release
catch_error for GameMaker » Devlog
- I rewrote most of the extension to be a smaller DLL (mere 12KB now).
As far as I can tell, I did not introduce any side effects, but I’m publishing it as a separate download just in case. - I supposedly fixed a ~7:16000 chance of fatal error functionality not working in a YYC game.
- I have released the source code for the extension.
If you were wondering how did this even work, now you can take a look.

Somewhat curious in how you calculated the odds of the crash…
The extension was looking for a 7-byte pattern by copying 16K blocks to an accessible location and going over them, but this did not account for the pattern being potentially at a block “edge” (e.g. 3 bytes here, 4 bytes in the next block).
lol, that would do it
