Sorry about all the question. Anyhow I have an issue about forground and backgrounds. There really isnt any commentation about this so if anyone could help me out that would be great. 

I have created a character and I have just recently implemented a scene into the foreground. I will later create a background layer.

Anyhow, the character is set behind the foreground and Im not sure how to fix this. Heres an image of what is going on. Also what is the limit to how many layers can there be in total? 

Thanks!

Nvm got it working. Thanks to Telostia (telos157)in the IRC.

Just re-arange the layers in order as so. Where World is the main character and monsters. Where the top of the list is the layers furthest from the camera, and the layers on the bottom of the list, in this case Curtains, would be to the front of the camera. 

            Scene.AddChild(Background);
            // BEFORE -> Scene.AddChild(World);
            Scene.AddChild(EffectsLayer);
            Scene.AddChild(Foreground);
            Scene.AddChild(Interface);
	    Scene.AddChild(World); // Character Sprites <= After
	    Scene.AddChild(GameObjects);
            Scene.AddChild(Curtains);

Scene.AddChild(node, order) will let you set this. Check the docs for a detailed description of how the order works.

I knew there was one with a parameter! :\ 

Uhm where exactly are the docs? I cant find it.

Documentation can be found here:

Open Windows Start Menu

Goto:

Ps Suite | Documents | SDK Documents (English)

It wil start your webbrowser to show local documentation.

Allow blocked content in order to easily search (in upper right corner) for classes, methods etc. like for example the method AddChild.

Quite handy ... I use it regularly when searching for something I would like to use or need.

How would I make a layer that mimics the platform ground? So lets say if there was a hole, the player would fall through. Or if there was a layer above then the player could jump up onto that platform layer?

Something like some sort of collosion, so if player collides with the sprite layer, he will stay on top..? Not sure how to word it.
