I am making a simple RPG game, but I am struggling with the layering of my game. I am unable to walk in front and behind a tree. I tried using a tile map but then there are some empty spaces which make my game look weird.

Thank you

Look up Z-index and Y-sort

Generally, that’s what Godot’s built-in YSort node is for. There’s lots of available info and tutorials online - in both text and video format depending on what you’re looking for.

Just do a search for something like godot ysort or godot ysort tilemap depending on your needs.

Also, the YSort docs are here:

Thank you so much :smiley:
