Is there any attribute to change the order of the actors in a layer?

agueis

For example when actor hero self.position y<=332 change attribute wall in front of actor hero,thanks

You can do this by having two actors, one on an upper layer and one on a lower layer . . . and switch their opacity on and off.

So . . . . first the layer sandwich:

Wall 1

Hero

Wall 2

And the logic . . . .

Wall 1: When actor hero self.position y<=332

Change alpha to 1

Otherwise: Change alpha to 0

Wall 2: When actor hero self.position y<=332

Change alpha to 0

Otherwise: Change alpha to 1

Thanks Socks, what i want to do is impossible to do it in gamesalad, yes you´re rule works, but the problem is : that there are 2 actors that need this rule and when the first actor goes to the position 332 the second actor have to go to that position after 3 seconds, so the first actor change the order of the layers and then the layers are wrong for the second actor

The obvious question would be if you think it's impossible why would you even be pursuing the idea ?

Then apply the rule to the actors and not the walls ! You don't have to limit yourself to only changing the opacity of the walls, use the same logic to changes the opacity of the walls or the actor or both or 6 sets of walls and 92 pairs of actors or anything you want ! . . . basically with a little applied logic this method can be used to do all a sorts of visual layering, but you need to adapt it to your own needs, I am only showing you the basic idea.
