Hey, here's the problem I'm having with the game Im working on.
Let me explain. See, the game is in the style of old genesis games such as the punisher, avengers, TMNT, etc etc. The problem I'm having right now is how to make sure that the enemies and the player look 'alright'. Meaning that if the player's feet are above an enemy's that means it should be behind it and vice versa. The same applies for all objects within the playing area, even if they are the copies of the same enemy. Any idea how to do this without making seperate objects? Has anyone done a tutorial on this? The TMNT engine has a lot of this problem, as far as I can tell.
As for the layer object, If i use that, it doesnt allow me to sort by an object's YBottom, does it? Also, there are other actives in the game that arent supposed to be affected by this but they do and it messes everything up. I also tried to sort them by using 'Bottom' detectors of both the enemy and the player but for some reason I cant seem to figure it out.
Haha, no that works great. And yeah, I was trying to make it easier for me by using qualifiers. So now, if I shoot one enemy, all of them die. Mmf should really have a 'self' expression. Any ideas?
