YEAH !!! this will solve the problem of the walkable area ! 

Thank's a lot !!!

The other option is to split the table up into a few different walk-behinds with different baselines to get around this problem.

If there's nothing else using baselines near the table, you could also use a region: in its walk onto event, set the man's baseline manually to a value greater than the table's, then reset it to their feet if the man walks off the region.

I think some "mix" between those two solutions will solve my problem. Thanks a lot !!! 


One last question, is there any function in AGS for creating a walkable area on which only one or two character can walk?

in fact, they control the dog. So the man won't walk over the table "area" if it is not typed in the script.

But the matter is that if the man stand  in front of the table, he will be hidden by the "walkbehind" area defined for the dog.

It's quite difficult to explain...
                                                                ______
                           The table----------->     |__o___|
                                                                |   L     |
                            The  man---------------->   ^

On this "clear" picture ( ) the man is lower than the baseline defined for the "walkbehind: table" which was create for the dog. There is no problem. In my case, the table is slanting (does this word exist?  )  :
                            ___   
                           /    /|
                          /    o
                         /__/L
                         |   |^______________(baseline)

In this case, the man is higher than the baseline defined for the table, so his head is hidden by it. This is my problem.

Hello everybody,   

I'm creating my first game and I have a question. I will illustrate it by this example:

Two characters are in a room: a man and a dog. There is also a table. The table is part of the background. The dog can walk under the table, the table become a "walkbehind" area for this dog. The man is not able to walk in the area under the table and mustn't be hidden by the table.

The problem is that I don't know haw to do this. If someone could help me...  thanks'
