    LOS Query Regarding Layering Images

    Can you place an image on top of another image and override the LOS of the lower image.

    For example:

    A map already created with LOS and I place a door image with LOS data in it. Ideally I would like LOS data of the door to overwrite the LOS data of the wall, allowing the door to be opened/closed and allowing the character to see and walk through.

    I am trying to build a few geo-morphs tiles with LOS data and would like to be able to add doors at any point on geo-morphs rooms rather than having to draw the doors in advance on the tile.

    If you have multiple layers with LOS, the LOS data is combined. So, adding a door layer would add the LOS data from the door, but would leave the wall LOS unaffected.

    As far as I know, no sadly The attachment of LoS to layers is for rotations etc. of the tiles, then the attached LoS gets also rotated/moved and so on. But the LoS is always "on top" when it is about its visibility You can normally turn the LoS of a layer then off by clicking on the wall button right to the corresponding layer entry but that sadly doesn't help in your example, you need to manually cut the wall etc

    EDIT: Ah, I got ninja'd
