when it is play, use a variable like "inplay" and set it to true. if it isn't, set "inplay" to false. so use the Test Variable action and say if inplay is equal to true, use the action to move towards the point.

Sorry if this sounds confusing...not the best at explaining in the step event for the objects your want the camera view to follow simply put view_object=object_index that will make the camera follow the object. now when you change objects player to car. as long as your car has that in its step even the camera should follow the car because the player is gone and vise-versa. comment by Doublek642: Thanks alot man it worked perfectly for all vehicles! oh, and one more question.

How can you make an object follow another after a key press in Game Maker?
If you want to make an object follow another on demand (which i assume is your goal) then in the object you want, maske an action. For example - keyboard press F. In this action put what will happen.There are basically three options (although there is probably some complicated code for advanced games).1. Move TowardsX object name here.xY object name here.y2. Step TowardsX object name here.xY object name here.y3. Step AvoidingX object name here.xY object name here.yFor all of these you have to specify the speeds of the object that is moving towards the other. And there are some slight differences in each but choose one that suits your game.I hope this information was helpful.
