You could either:

  • Declare the variable in Create
  • Structure the script so that it is called in Create to initialize it and then in Step to use it
    (an optional argument or lack of arguments for a reasonable solution, event_type for a hack)
  • Use variable_instance_exists provided that you are not using an ancient version of GMS1
