I have three Actors a, b and c. I want to that:
a is above b
b is above c
c is above a, when it isn't behind b
Is that possible?

setPaintOrder(class... c)
I'm afraid it's not. The best you could do is change the paint order yourself if you detect that the c isn't touching a b, for instance. If there are multiple c objects, then this won't work of course; in that case you could introduce a fourth class 'd' which is a clone of 'c', and have its paint order above a; when a c isn't touching a b, you remove it and replace it with a d; when a d is touching a b, remove it and replace with a c.
You could add boolean(s) to each class (in a: aboveB; in b: aboveC; and in c: aboveA and behindB) and, not using these classes in 'setPaintOrder', remove and replace the actors in the world when needed to be placed above another.
For example, in A class:
Do similar for the other classes (the c class will be a bit more involved for what it does).
if (getOneIntersectingObject(B.class) != null && !aboveB)
{
int x = getX(), y = getY(), w = getWorld();
w.removeObject(this);
w.addObject(this, x, y);
aboveB = true;
}
if (getOneIntersectingObject(B.class) == null && aboveB) aboveB = false;Thanks
danpost, that might work, but you're relying on undocumented behavior which you should avoid if possible. It's not specified anywhere that the objects will be painted in the order they are added into the world, and that it happens now is an implementation detail which might change.
I understand (like building complicatied things in Minecraft (if you know it)).
