Mention secondary_draw_order on the render_layer documenation
Posted: Sun Jul 06, 2025 11:38 pm
Wanted to ask about having an extra line or so added to the data stage render_layer page, which mentions/links to the secondary_draw_order page? I just personally had to deal with overlapping render_layers and the only fix for it was to use secondary_draw_order - which took a second to find due to it not being directly mentioned in relation to render layers
(my original issue, the module visualisations were overlapping the medium power pole graphics due it using the 'object' layer; while my graphics were ones above it, like higher-object-above/under) (the fixed version, which was only doable with secondary_render_order)
If it helps, me and a few others were thinking to word it like:
"Specific objects, like pipe pictures or beacon modules, can have a secondary_draw_order which is used to avoid issues with overlapping graphics."
