Returns: N/A
This function can be used to define a view within any room in
your game except the current one. The code will replicate
all the same options that are available within the room editor.
global.myroom = room_add();
room_set_view(global.myroom, 0, 1, 0, 0, 320, 240, 0, 0, 640, 480,
64, 64, 4, 4, obj_player);
This will set view[0] in global.myroom. It will make the view visible with an initial position of (0,0) and a width and height of (320, 240) but will display it double-size as the view port has been set to 640x480. It will also set the view to keep 64 pixels horizontally either way, and 64 pixels vertically either way, between its edges and the player and it will have a maximum horizontal and vertical speed of 4 pixels per second.
