i tried to use this:

if(gms_update_check()){
draw_set_font(global.FontSnc)
draw_set_color(c_red)
draw_text(320,240,"YOUR VERSION OF THE GAME IS OUTDATED PLEASE GO TO")
draw_text(320,272,"http://gamemakerserver.com/en/games/5160/download/")
draw_text(320,304,"TO UPDATE IT AND REMOVE THIS ERROR D:<")
}
else
{
draw_set_font(global.FontSnc)
draw_set_color(c_green)
draw_text(640,0,"your game its up to date :)")

What are the versions you set in gms_settings and the version you entered here, in the developer panel?

When are you running that code? You should make sure there's enough time for the game to receive the update info from the server.

What are the precise version numbers you tried? (if you tried multiple, just give one you thought should have definitely worked)

Also keep in mind that if you change the version number in the developer panel it might take up to 30 minutes before it will affect your game.
