How to draw a sprite/tile above event-sprite

[Trudel]

Hi there,

i have an event, which shows a "door open" animation. Now I want to draw a sprite above that (some grass at the doorstep, to be specific). I tried using different layers, but that doesn't work. Is this possible, or should I just edit it into the door sprite?

Have you tried to mark it with a star? The door has the same priority as the player, I suppose? If so, you could try to put the star marker on the tile, like on the ones you want above the player. This usually works for events with the same priority as the player, too, since NPCs should also stand behind a curtain or walk beneath an arc, instead of being in front of it.
