Hey, I was wondering if anyone could help with the coding on a custom race I've been making. I'm trying to add a sort of "brand"/tattoo on their faces though I'm not exactly sure how to do that in the .species file ;_; any assistance would be appreciated!
I would take a look at the novakid.species file and the actual art files in the humanoid folder. Novakids have some facial designs you can choose between. basically the same as a tattoo. "headOptionAsFacialhair" : true That is the line that (unless I am wrong) keeps you form changing hair color, and instead makes it your facial hair. The "brands" on novakids are face tattoo's really. So just poke around in their files.
1: please avoid double posting 2: have you heard of ColorBound? you could look at it to see an example
Since it's a bit related, here's a link to another post I did few minutes ago; there are multiple parameters you could use to set which option does what: http://community.playstarbound.com/threads/haircolorasbodysubcolor-help.133374/#post-3167355 From what you're trying to do, I think you'd need to add the line Code: "altOptionAsHairColor": true, in your .species file?
