Putting characters in front of/behind each other

#1 Post by CaptainTudmoke »

Hi there—first time user here. In the opening scene of my game, there's a part where a character comes in from the left, another comes in from the right, and then I want the character from the left to pass over the one on the right as he leaves. I've got everything set up, except the left character is passing behind the right character when I want him to pass in front. How do I fix this? Thanks!

When you use:

show char2

try:

show char2 behind char1

where char1 and char2 are the tag names (the first part of the name)
