Hi I am a super beginner starting out with some easy guides.

So I want to make a character mask with this tree.

As in I want any character that steps over this black blob to turn invisible (without the blob being visible)

Im not gonna lie, I spent an embarrsing amount of time trying different methods to get this to work. Is there a simple layer - masking layer technique for this? Or would it require some scripting?

I managed to sort of get it to work with this method but its so bad lmao.

I know it would be easypeasy to just add the "trees" as seperate sprites and have the characters walk under them, but I am trying to see if I can get characters to "vanish" behind static background trees for fun
