Post Body

Hello World, I never handled this situation before so it's a little new to me. I'm working on a top down 2D game like zombies ate my neighbors, but I can't use tiles for the kinda map I wanna make for this one level. That said considering I want a map that keeps on connecting one background to another to another. Is there a way to load in and load out backgrounds or will gamemaker not slowdown with like 40, 1024x1024 backgrounds. I would assume I need to load them in and out. But then does having like 40 background layers also also tank performance. I'm not really sure how to handle this.
