layerFrontness
layerFrontness(
order,worldY,worldZ):number
Defined in: render/layerOrder.ts:50
How far in FRONT a draw sits within its layer — larger is nearer the viewer, so ranking by this descending is “topmost first”.
The camera looks down -z, so a larger z is nearer; under y-sort the projected depth is world Y inverted (lower on screen = nearer). Painter layers still answer by z because the engine’s sort key tie-breaks on it, and a scene that puts one sprite in front of another with z means it — this is exactly the ordering a person sees.
