You opoint a t3(ball)/5 with no body and big pic while doing this attack. This ball will last for about 3-2 seconds I guess. use short vaule like meh 60/59 = 2 seconds.

Its need hit_j: 1 or mor eI think to make appear behind the character.

Edit: thanks.

Actually, it would be hit_j: 1. But otherwise, what HappyHour said.

[vandesdelca]

hit_j: 1? i thought it should be around 45-49 or 51-54(i dunno wich one), so the ball will move upside the z edge and appear behind the character..

hit_j: 1 to appear behind all the chars; what drahcir and happyhour said

[Alblaka]

uhm... actually hit_j: 1 means the T3 is moving with 49 px speed per frame upwards.
I don't know whether it has a special "always display behind" effect, but if the wait is 2 or bigger, the pic will of course move to the upper edge ^^

You can use hit_j: 49 too if you want.
Only thing that hit_j: 1 does is, that it move extremely fast. That way it looks like it immediatly appears on the highest z-value, a.k.a. background.

Objects will be drawn over each other in regard to their z-position. Only if they're on the same line (z-wisely), something weird will happen (I think, it'll then matter who spawned first. Don't drag me to court for that theory, tho).

So yeah, the method has been explained already. What I would like to amend is that large images can very likely crash the game during loading (note that it's not always; only from time to time). Just so you know what to expect.

[Alblaka]

I just wanted to ensure "hit_j: 1" wasn't a special tag.
If it's not, it will cause the object to move behind everything behind (being displayed as background).

And if you keep the hit_j:1 in all frames, it should be displayed behidn everything permanently.

@the pic size:
I usually make pics of 1500x700 to cover whole screen, works fine ^^
Just load that pic and opoint it every 1500 px. That way the picsize isn't too large, but everything is still covered.

Thanks everyone , I'll try to understand .
