file_delete(fname);
| Argument | Description |
|---|---|
| fname | The name of the file to delete. |
Returns: Boolean
This function will delete the specified file from the system. It
should be noted that this function will only delete those files
that GameMaker: Studio is able to create and parse: ini
files, text files and binary files, or those files made to store
game created resources like sprites or surfaces. However, it will
not delete any other file. The function will also return
true if the file has successfully been removed, or
false in any other circumstances.
WARNING! This function may not work as you expect due to
GameMaker: Studio being sandboxed! Please see the section on
File System Limits for
more information.
