Having some tile/doodad overlay problems
« on: October 16, 2014, 05:08:42 AM »
Anybody know how to fix this?

Basically i cant place any other type of tile on top of this custom tile

and for some custom grass and other stuff it just goes behind you

EDIT - haha maybe i'm making too many threads and i should quit for a bit

<tileset level="10">

Depends what you set the level to, higher levels stack on top of lower numbers.  Keep in mind that each and every tileset needs a unique level number though, can't be the same as an existing one.

So your custom one probably just has a level which is too high.

You can never make a doodad go below a tileset, even with a negative number.

I believe that the autobias is the thing you're looking for, I'm pretty sure its the default layer which that doodad gets placed on.  You can even change what layer a doodad is on by selecting it and then hitting Ctrl+a number to put it on that layer, or ctrl+alt+number to go to negative that number.  Its why like the color sections always show up ontop of walls.
