Building Worlds

Now that you have the basics of using the editor down, here are some tips on building immersive, high-quality worlds in All Out:

Layering and Depth Offset

Sprite_Renders and Spine_Animators have two unique properties that determine which is on top as they move up and down in the scene.

Layer is the broad and simple way of deciding what goes on top. Elements with a low layer will be behind everything. Some recommended values might be:

• Map background textures: -100 layer

• Players, NPCs, Cars: 0 layer

• Overlays, clouds, particles: 100 player

Depth Offset is more precise and lets you determine when something will go behind something else if it's on the same layer.

• Adjust the depth offset easily using the depth offset tool in the top left of the scene view.

The player will appear behind the object when it is above the red line, and in front of the object when it's below.

Schleem for Scale

To easily check the sizing and layering of elements in your game, you can preview a player's character by holding ctrl+spacebar and moving your mouse around the scene window.
