How do I make A overlap B, B overlap C and C overlap A?

Hi again!

This question is simple and I wonder:

Consider 3 objects

Is it possible to make A overlap B, B overlap C, and C overlap A?

Example: it's a 2d top down shooter: Walls overlap player, player overlaps dead angle (dark zone behind the player: where the player can't see), dead angle overlaps walls:

Thank you for all help <3

This is not possible to achieve with Construct's 2D renderer. Everything is drawn one after the other on top of the previous content. This kind of result can only be achieved with a 3D renderer (using a depth buffer to determine overlap per-pixel). In 2D you'll have to work around it, maybe by cutting up objects in to different segments.

Ok thank you that's what I wanted to know:)

Of course,

Here as you can see Walls overlap player, player overlaps dead angle (which is actually a sprite pinned to the player), and Dead angle should (but doesn't here) overlap the player.

But as Ashley said I could instead try to erase some part of the line of sight so it fits to the player image.

Wow forgot the picture...

Yes sorry for not being clear enough. I'll do my best. The walls are the grey objects. The black shadow behind the player is actually a sprite and not a shadow. The other black parts are shadows (you can ignore them as they are not part of this question).

I want the wall to be over the player as you can see in order to make it a little bit more 3d.

Or even better can you share a demo? that will be quicker

So implified the whole thing to make it simple

I don't know how to make a demo but I think it would just confuse you. I deactivated the shadows. So here you see the player between two walls. The walls are over the player to make a little 3D effect.

I put the Dead angle (black thing) on top. It looks cringy like this. So this is why I prefer the player being on top of the Dead angle, Dead angle being over walls (so you can't see them behind you when looking in the opposite direction) and the walls being over the player.

Hope it makes it clearer enough;)

Tanks for for considering the subject.

Sorry I didn't get it fully

Walls over player: True

Player over Dead angle: true

Dead angle over walls: No true

Are you saying that Dead zone shouldn't overlap walls?

but player & Wall should be overlapping

& player should be overlapping dead zone at the same time

is that correct?

No lol.

It was in my example (the picture) that:

Walls over player: True

Player over Dead angle: true

Dead angle over walls: No true

But I want Dead angle over walls to be true.
