Cool DRM Check:
GameMaker Studio 1 periodically (every now and again, during certain tool uses) checks whether the global variables used to decide what targets you have a license for matches what was loaded into thread local storage, and if not it corrects it and outputs something in the log

presumably this is to catch out people asking for support with some sort of crack in place, by making platform exports the pirate expects to work break (disabling the bits) and adding a blatantly obvious sign in the logs something's awry though, you already have to break a fair bit to get that far
