hullo, I'm looking to figure out how to make a layering system that functions LIVE within a project, a 2.5d project where objects can move in front of or behind one another automatically. At least so its compatible with this https://scratch.mit.edu/projects/546332608/ . I've tinkered with lists, sorting algorithms, etc., but I can't figure it out ): is there any solution?

this is my first post so I don't know but use this!

go to front

or

go back (...) layers

Is there a specific pattern or can the objects switch layers randomly?

The project as it is has no defined layering, its just the order the clones were created at the moment. The goal is to have it so the ones farther up will be farther behind in layering, and ones lower farther in front.

I tried, is it working?
