I have both these blocks in these two pictures, and the sprites still wouldn't layer themselves. What is happening?

makes the sprites go forward a couple layers. You want them to SET their z layer to something not INCREASE the z layer.

is a better solution.

Those were codes from Griffpatch's tutorial, it worked for him, and it did work for me for a while until I added some new sprites and wanted to have the codes apply to every sprite not just one sprite.

Where do I put the ‘go forward something layers’ block?

Check if your counter variables are local.

The code worked before, the sprites were all layered, but when I placed those blocks in different sprites something began to happen.

All the variables are for each sprite only, each sprite uses its own unique variable. Can somebody put the blocks here that works?

maybe thes will help https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wWjot1vJBf0&list=PLy4zsTUHwGJJM6OFblu_t-5I5Yw5SxvhT&index=6

I did the exact same code as the video, because the only reason I was asking for help is because my code used to work, but when I applied it on my other sprites it didn't work. The clones of the sprite itself won't overlap each other, but it will overlap the other sprites. I set the Z Position variable to “for this this sprite only” so that each sprite has its own layering variable. I don't know how to add a proper Z Position variable without online tutorials. Scratch only has X Position and Y Position, but for a proper 3D game the Z Position has to exist too. This is the problem with my game, the sprites overlap each other when they are farther away, which they should only overlap another sprite if they are closer.

Here is the link to my project if anybody can help me by remixing the project then fix up the code: https://scratch.mit.edu/projects/915201069/

Thanks

Hmm, the project seems to work fine for me, but perhaps you could try changing

Ok thanks…

Does the layering work in the project for you? It doesn't work for me, the soldiers still spawn on top of each other.
