Z-Elevation problems (Solved)

I have a game where to create a sense of 3D the objects closer to the bottom of the screen are in front of objects higher on the screen. I need the same thing to happen even when I spawn new objects but I can't get it to work.

For each object (your tiles) ordered by .y (your tiles) coordinate ascending send to back.

Edit:

Actually, make that send to front, ascending or descending.

+ System: For each greenPod ordered by greenPod.Y Descending
-> greenPod: Send to front[/code:3iy9hejc]

Thanks, I've used the same system to order my dirt tiles, but now the greenpod goes infront of all the dirttiles

From the cap Im not exactly sure what you want to happen.

I can tell you there's a difference between z order, and z height.

Z order gives you the order in which objects are drawn to the screen. Z height gives the object an aspect ratio to the camera's view point.

In this case I believe you will want to use the y coordinates rather than the z height.

I'm trying to make the greenpods go behind the dirttiles.

Add all isometric objects to family and use "for each..." -event for family, it should works

I'm trying to make the greenpods go behind the dirttiles.

Events are run in order, so if you were to place the dirttiles event after the greenpods.....

Thanks guys, putting the sprites all in one family and then making a "For each" statement worked.
