A member of the Game Maker Community requested a way to "combine" rooms where objects would not have to be completely re-done. While the reason is unknown, the problem is resolved, in a slightly unfriendly manner. I realize that Game Maker does not allow this, but I made a system that lets you do this, in a more indirect sense.

Here is the gmk file I used:

If you are porting this into your game, you will only really need the room_copier and room_creator objects. Follow the video, and hope I can be of service to you!

Also, the switch statement in room_creator? You can have multiple rooms with different strings and have each room create different objects. So say you have 9 rooms and mash it down to 3 rooms with 3 previous rooms from each. Then you would need a level2_string, a level3_string, and provide two extra cases. Use the EXACT format I did to prevent it from breaking.
