How do you reorder game objects in a collection?

Hello,

This will probably be the simplest of questions but I cannot for the life of me find information about it.

What I am wondering is: how do you reorder game objects in the collection outline?

Thanks in advance!

What is the reason you want to reorder them? If you want to change how they are drawn, set them at different Z values.

The reason is just so it would in my opinion be easier to identify certain game objects. I noticed that the order changed by the name but it would be nice if you could rearrange them yourself.

For example if I have a script that controls everything in a collection, I would like the game object that holds this script to always be at the top of the collection no matter what the name of the game object is.

Another problem I noticed was if you copied one game object several times so you got more than 9 of these copies the 10th object would order itself under the second game object by name, it would also be nice to move this game object in the order so it fits with the rest. (so it becoms go1, go2 … go9, go10 instead of go1, go10, go2 …)

If this feature doesn’t exist that’s fine, I just thought it would be in the engine.
