What i'm trying to do is make the inside of a house but on the sides i want it black and with walls on the side. I don't really know how to explain lol.... So that the player can't move till the very edge of the gamescreen.

The indoor tilesets already have something like this. It's the Wall autotiles you want -- on the map editor, it should look like a wooden square with black in the middle, or a black blacground with wooden blocks in the corners (I forget which.) These allow you to block off the side and back walls in interior maps.
 
Hi Odense,

Welcome to RMXP (The gamemaker & this Forum).

Create a new map, use any of the Interior tilesets. (I'll use 010: Castle Town In)

The very first autotile (the second tile in the first row), is the wall tile.
On layer 1, use the rectangle tool (or flood tool) to fill the entire map with this tile.
The whole map will look black, that's ok.
Now select the tile right below that one. (floor tile).
Draw in a floor to define a room.

Notice that the walls magically appear around the floor.  Pretty cool, eh?

Be Well
