<br> <br> My basic idea would be to just assign what goes on the different layers, from<br>bottom up:<br><br>0: map floor - since you can't see anything beneath the floor, this is the bottom.<br><br>1: building/buttons/whatever on top of floor, that player then stands on top of.
<br>2: Same as 1 - I don't think there are actually cases were there are 2 objects,<br>but I rather like to keep this open for expansion.<br><br>3-5: objects player may actually pick up/interract with<br><br>6: Player/monster
<br>7: second monster - should really only show up if one of these is a multi space<br>monster overlapping something else.<br><br>8-10: Flying objects - typically spells.</blockquote><div><br>
How about 11: rooftops. When player is not under one, client
displays them. When the player walks under one, they disappear,
and the player can see the interior.<br>
