Drawing in layers?

[BlackFox]

Does the draw method draw things by their placement in code? Like I would draw a car and then an overaly over it and the zombie would draw under the overlay. Is that how it works?

whatever order you draw them in is how they will appear
(if you draw a car first, the car will be underneath)

Oh, is that how DiNo made his games so 3D looking?

I'm not entirely sure how DiNo made his games, but from experience with a tile engine, I know you can draw things in layers, that is, a background layer, a layer with some things that you walk over, another layer that the player is on, as well as collision objects, and finally a top layer that would have things like tree tops so that it appears that you are going under something, even though you really aren't, it's just drawn on top of the player.

Hmm.. That's pretty cool.
