ENTITY layers

I've noticed that if one creates an ENTITY with ent_create()
and give it a layer say layer 5
then create another ENTITY this time with ent_createlayer()
and give it a layer say layer 3, which is smaller than the previous entity,
it still is rendered IN FRONT OF the previous ENTITY,
when it should be rendered BEHIND the previous ENTITY?

Has anyone encountered this?

noo?

the ent_createlayer will create a layer in the 2d view screen

the ent_create is for 3d world.

so thats why they created 2 different ent_create.. on for 3d entity
and the other for creating 3d entities but on the screen, like panels ( panels are screen entity.., but it can have 3d too)

ok thanks for the info.
so in reality they cant be mixed if one depends on layers,
which is not so good really.

Probably why i've never seen the sun behind the clouds.
