Hey size, sorry if this is explained somewhere, but I can't seem to find it...What value can be used for the color variables? I've put in:
gms_show_set_constant(c_background1,make_color_rgb(00,00,00));
gms_show_set_constant(c_background1,000000); (trying hex notation here)
gms_show_set_constant(c_background1,c_black);
And then just tried plugging random numbers in, e.g.:
gms_show_set_constant(c_background1,1);
And everything chucked up an error...

What does the error say?
############################################################################################
FATAL ERROR in
action number 1
of Create Event
for object obj_login:
Push :: Execution Error - Variable Get 100002.c_background1(100206, -2147483648)
at gml_Object_obj_login_CreateEvent_1 (line 2) - gms_show_set_constant(c_background1,000000);

I've tried the create event of both obj_login and obj_GMS.
In The HEX Try You Need To Put ("#hex format number")

Not sure why I didn't catch this before, but the constant name will need to be between quotes, like this:
gms_show_set_constant("c_background1",c_black);
