Note: Be sure not to use too many effects, may cause your phone or tablet to be slow, or even shut off game, due to the processor speed of phone or table.

Examples:

effect_create_below
effect_create_above
effect_clear

There are also a number of different constants for each of the pre-defined effects that the above functions can use:

ef_cloud
ef_ellipse
ef_explosion
ef_firework
ef_flare
ef_rain
ef_ring
ef_smoke
ef_smokeup
ef_snow
ef_spark
ef_star

effect_create_below(ef_firework,random(room_width),view_yview[0],80,c_green)


effect_create_below(ef_firework,random(room_width),view_yview[0],80,c_red)


effect_create_above(ef_smoke,random(room_width),view_yview[0],80,c_gray)
