batches and z-ordering

[Nitneroc]

I haven't been able to use cocos lately, and I realize I have forgotten many thnigs...

It seems that batches don't take care of ordering, but I really need the speed of a batch and careful ordering. Is this even possible ? should I use pyglet batches instead of cocos ones ? Is there a workaround ?

I tried to correct this with no luck, could someone point me in the right direction ?

Ok, I honestly don't have a deep enough knowledge of cocos/pyglet/openGL, but I managed to get my batches to do what I ask of them (respect the z-order I want), by changing the usage of pyglet Group to OrderedGroup : the only change I made is this, in batch.BatchableNode : 

def set_batch(self, batch, groups=None, z=0):

    self.batch = batch

    if batch is None:

        self.group = None

    else:

        group = groups.get(z)

        if group is None:

            import pyglet

            group = pyglet.graphics.OrderedGroup(z) # this is the only line I changed

            groups[z] = group

        self.group = group

    for childZ, child in self.children:

        child.set_batch(self.batch, groups, z + childZ)

It seems that it used to be OrderedGroups, but this changed in r807, and every commit made since that time was for licence and such... I really don't know if this change will create some other problems, some performance troubles or anything, all I know is that it's currently doing the job for my current needs.
