The Pancake Dwarf has GameMaker: Studio

Please help me with my Top-down Rogue-like Rpg

I am going to use this discussion if I run into anymore trouble with my game or if I see any error messages during testing. Please help me with this error message that I am having trouble with. Thank you for at least reading this discussion. Here is the error message:

___________________________________________
############################################################################################
FATAL ERROR in
action number 1
of Create Event
for object obj_lifeform_parent:

Pop :: Execution Error - Variable set failed phy_fixed_rotation - read only variable?
at gml_Object_obj_lifeform_parent_CreateEvent_1 (line 7) - phy_fixed_rotation = true;
############################################################################################

Ever since I started to use the built-in physics engine with Game Maker: Studio, I have been encountering this error message a lot of times. If you could help me with this, it would help me make progress and it would be helpful. Thank you for your patience.

If a variable is read-only, then it can't be changed.

Actually I found the solution: In the room editor of Game Maker: Studio there is a physics tab and I just forgot to check mark the the check box labeled Room in Physics World. Thank you for your assistance, Wezinator35.
