New Layer System — Now Functional in PixSimulate FXStudio

The new Layer System is now working and being integrated into the latest development builds of PixSimulate FXStudio.

This system allows you to:

• Stack multiple sprites or scenes within a single simulation

• Enable or disable each layer individually (visibility, simulation, collisions, etc.)

• Mark a layer as “non-simulated” so it remains static while others interact with it

• Manage collisions between layers, including static ones

• Select, move, or hide sprites directly in the canvas

• Display a blue outline around the currently selected sprite

This addition opens the door to multi-layered simulations, such as:

• A static background with dynamic effects like rain or fire in front

• A solid scene with particles bouncing off fixed objects

• Separate physical tests running within the same project

The goal is to create a composite workflow where each layer can act as an independent simulation unit, or stay static, depending on the creative need.

Next steps:

• Multi-layer export simulation system

• Layer-specific parameters (density, friction, background color, etc.)

This update is part of the ongoing technical redesign of PixSimulate FXStudio, focused on flexibility, control, and creative freedom.
