Hi all! So I'm dabbling with my first race mod, and I've been using Skittles's Race Template as a starting point. Now the main question I want to put forward is how one would get the body colour to affect the hair colour as happens with the Novakids? Secondly, do the Undy Colour overrides affect the arms and head as well? I might have more questions later but at this point these are the two that I need the most urgent answers to. Thanks in advance

your species file Undy colour affect head n arms I have a guide should you have further questions https://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=1380289410
Oh yes yes, I'm actually following your guide and we spoke in the comments yesterday, my steam name is S A L T Thanks for the heads up, I wasn't totally sure what those options did, but I'll give them a try and see how it goes!
Ohhh lol Well in my guide under 'Dissecting the species file' there is a heading called 'Tricky Stuff', an explanation of the options are listed there.
