    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.

    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?
