  Oh wow! That's a pretty clever use of the 'for each' condition. Didn't notice you could pick an order for it.

  Thanks for the help, it works perfectly! =)

  Hey there.

  I'm currently developing a prototype for a tower defense game similar to Plants vs Zombies. Right now, tower placement and deletion works, as well as a basic shooter unit. However, I can't seem to figure out how to control the Z order of the units I create on the board.

  As expected, more recent units stay on top.

  

  I tried making the Z order be equivalent to their Y position on the board, but I can't seem to manipulate it further than moving higher or lower. None of the methods I tried to use worked. How could I make it so that higher units always stay on the back without a large amount of unnecessary layers for each lane? (The board may be much larger than this in later stages)

  Thanks in advance.

  EDIT: Oh yes, here's the prototype's .capx with my original attempt. The hitbox object is due to the unit's actual collision polygon being the tile, thus not being able to check for sprite excess.

  Well, it seems it could indaeed load more sounds. I was loading up a bunch of .WAVs, each with over 300 kb size. I rendered my SFX again as OGGs, mostly 30 kb each, and Audiere is loading them all. Not sure how many it will handle, though, I'll report if I hve any more problems.

  Thanks for the aid!

  Really nice plugin you made. But I have a strange problem, apparently I can only load 3 sounds, either from resource or from file. The three loaded ones play just fine, but if I try to play a fourth sound, nothing happens. Changing the volume doesn't work either.

  Is there a memory or instance limit on loaded sounds? If yes, what is it, or where can I change it? Because the plugin also doesn't have any settings... ._.

  Thanks in advance.
