Is there a 2 layer limit?

  1. Hi!
    A quick question, is there some kind of limit to how many layers can you put on top of each other? When I put layer E on top of D and C, it removes layer C.
  2. From the B-E tiles, you can only put two tiles on top of each other. You could add a third by using an event though.
  3. Oh, that explains it! Thank you!
  4. There's 4 layers that you can manipulate:

    - Parallax layer
    - TileA tiles
    - TileB-E tiles
    - Event graphics

    So if you're placing a book from TileE over a tree in TileB or something, then it will simply replace the tree image. Character event graphics are usually used as a final layer to get around this.
  5. @Celianna your list is only correct for Ace - this is MV, which had a second TileB-E layer added.
    So in RMMV there are five layers according to your definition, with the two upper tile layers B-E replacing one after another, keeping the last two B-E tiles placed.
  6. There's also two different layers for autotiles, but there is only a specific position on the tileset for you to add transparent autotiles if you want to show them on top of other autotiles.
