How to I blit an Image to the front of the other images?

boltAnim.blit(winsurface, (pos[0]-50,pos[1]-100)??)

I am wondering how I can blit an image to front to the other images, I understand whatever I blit last will be shown last, but how can I set the blit parameters to send the image forwards or backward on the surface?

If you want a way to change the order of items blitted on the fly you can populate a list with images and iterate over the list to draw them all. When you want to move something forward or back, change its order in the list

e.g:

items_to_be_drawn = [background,image1,image2]
for item in items_to_be_drawn:
    screen.blit(item,(0,0))

and to change the order you can use something like this: How can I reorder a list in python?

items at the start of list will be at the back and every subsequent item will be on top of the last

Simply change the order in which the images are blited on the surface/screen.

Example:

screen.blit("dot1")
screen.blit("dot2")

This will show dot2 on top of dot1.

screen.blit("dot2")
screen.blit("dot1")

This will show dot1 on top of dot2.
