SpriteKit not respecting zPosition?

Question

What effect addChild and zPosition really have on a scene?

I mean this: suppose I do this

sprite1.zPosition = 50;
sprite2.zPosition = 10;
sprite3.zPo         


        

Answer 1

In your game view controller, set the ignoresSiblingOrder property to false (or NO in objective-C).

let skView = self.view as SKView
skView.ignoresSiblingOrder = false
