How do you get a sprite behind the detention center glass?

Post by ryekseu&colawoffices »

I have reached the point where the main character in my trial has to go to the Detention Center to meet the accused suspect.

Only problem is, it turns out like:

I need the sprite of Will Powers to be behind the stand, like in the original games.

How do I do this, and why can't I do it?

There are two versions of the detention center background, one behind the character and one in front.
This is the wrong version.

Yes, you need to select "Detention Center (behind)".

Oh, and why do you have "Smooth scrolling" checked? That's used when you want a wider background to scroll to one a specific part of the background (example, in court, the defense bench, the witness stand, the prosecution's bench).

How to make a character appear behind the Detention Center?

Post by ned63 »

After returning to AAO and playing some AMAZING cases, I was inspired to make another case, FAR better than my last (which I deleted, it's AWFUL). This one is starting off with an Investigation, and I decided to make the detention center now so I wouldn't need to later.

However, when trying to place a character on-screen, he was in front of the glass window of the detention center.
It goes without saying that he, the defendant-to-be, shouldn't be outside, so how do I make him go on the inside?
I don't remember having this issue at all for the witness stand.
This is what it looks like now:Image

Thanks!

Please look for previous topics asking the same question before starting a new question.

Ugh, I SWEAR I didn't see this when I was looking through to see if there were any answers.
How did I miss it?

And it worked, thanks.

Sorry if I'm just being dumb, but where can I find it? It doesn't appear to be in any of my choosable locations.
