I've been having a few problems with ordering tables recently. I've
designed a kind of 45% top down graphics engine for my latest project
and put in a walking mech model into it. The problem is that the feet of
the mech (which are separate models) keep flickering behind the floor
tiles. I tried a number of solutions, none of which worked, so I tried
sorting the mech in one OT and the level in another. This kind of works,
but I don't know what position in the world OT to sort the mech OT into.
I suspect it's got something to do with the distance of the camera from
the mech but everything I've tried seems not to work.

Cheers,

	Tom
