render order of opaque objects?

[MichaelJPCT]

if several opaque object3d are added to a world in particular order, can i assume they are rendered in that order?

[AeroShark333]

I don't think it works that way... I thought there would be some depth checking for the Object3D's when it comes to rendering order

[EgonOlsen]

Depth is only relevant for translucent objects. Anyway, it doesn't work for opaque either, because they are sorted by state to minimize state changes. So: No, you can't assume that.

[MichaelJPCT]

here's another question: in a World, are transparent objects rendered after (speaking of time) all opaque objects?

[EgonOlsen]

Yes, of course. Otherwise, the pixels from the opaque objects won't shine trough but overdraw them.
