I don't know if this is the right place to report this, but its always annoyed me how the shadows on the power polls are behind the player, but the shadows on the power lines are in front of the player

What did you do?
Made an electrical grid

What happened?
Shadows of objects that touch are touching through the player model??? I guess that's a way to describe it.

What did you expect to happen instead? It might be obvious to you, but do it anyway!
Seems to me like the shadows should all be behind the player character

Does it happen always, once, or sometimes?
Always, Several versions since I originally noticed it.

Pic is of the player character blocking a power poll shadow, but the wire shadow is in front of the pc and still visible.

Thanks for the report however this is not something we will be fixing due to 2D nature of the game. Trying to fake 3D by having layers of sprites means that tweaking one thing will break other things and i am not considering this to be making the game unplayable.
