| Constant | Description |
|---|---|
| mb_left | The left mouse button |
| mb_middle | The middle mouse button (this may not be valid for all target platforms) |
| mb_right | The right mouse button |
| mb_none | No mouse button |
| mb_any | Any of the mouse buttons |
mouse_check_button(numb);
| Argument | Description |

Boolean
if mouse_check_button(mb_left)
{
instance_create_layer(mouse_x, mouse_y, "Effects", obj_Star);
}
The above code will check for the left mouse button and every step that it is held down will create an instance of the object indexed in "obj_Star".
