Ok, I am working on a simple game. I put in a backdrop, a sprite and some text. The backdrop covered the text so I started with dbDrawSpritesFirst. That solved the problem, so i got the backdrop at the back and the sprite and text on the top. That was only for the title screen. When I get into the game, I did a dbLine and that was all the way at the top above the sprites. I want this sprite to be above that Line but I put dbDrawSpritesFirst at the begginning but if i take that out, that it messes up my title screen, the reason why i put that there. I can't do dbSetSpritePriority because it draws the sprites first. I can't do dbDrawSpritesLast because the sprites will cover the line and text. Anyone knows what I can do to fix this?

what he meant is that when the title screen of your game is switched off and the game starts you "delete sprite" the sprites from your titlescreen as you won't need them inside the game
