I'd like to add this to Tom's note:
Stage layering DOES occur based on sprite channels.
Just placing a sprite into a channel auto-magically sets the locZ
equal to the channel number unless you use Lingo to specify a
different locZ.
Using the Lingo property provides an override on the 'natural'
layering effect that happens because of score channel layout.
