Build Background

So you may be wondering what I mean by this. Well, if you have ever played EE 2 (before it was shut down), you may know about the /buildbg true/false command. This allowed you to build foreground blocks, actions, and decorations as backgrounds. This is slightly glitchy with transparent blocks as they have no I-frames when you move the screen around. And even then, it's used in certain worlds like the old EE tutorial recreated somewhat by Patrik. I was wondering if we could have access to something like that so we can hide some secrets within the levels of the game.

Does it also work in all ways? Eg. You can place action blocks on decoration blocks.

Because I really need to place invisible portals on decoration blocks sometimes.

I want to give birth to the magnificent:

not if you want the portal to work.

in true ee2 fashion the portal would not work and not have animations. same with other stuff like fire or coins. they would not work and just be a still image.

If the decoration block was the BG, couldnt the portal then just be a normal block, and therefore world as usual?

I'd prefer many decorations as backgrounds, but why not all 3? Why can't there be 3 layers in EE? Backgrounds < Decorations < Solid Blocks (including action blocks).

why not just 2 action bllock on each other like to lock a portal wiht a coindoor and then portal still works or lick a portal with a spike or hide a spike behind a portal that if u teleport back u get killed
