I was playing on modified of Starbound (1.0) and after installing 2-3 additional mods my characters hairstyle was change to rather atrocious one.

So here's my question: is there any in-game way to change character's hairstyle and if not, is there any working editor or way to set back my original hairstyle? :/

Apprecieate any help.

Scrap it. I manage to edit my hairstyle through .player file.

For anyone with the same problem or if you just want to change your character's appearance:

1. Go to your Starbound folder (Steam: C:\Steam\steamapps\common\Starbound) -> storage -> player
2. There you should be able to find .player file(s). One file for each character you've created. Topmost one is for the last played character.
3. Open .player file with text editor (Notepad++ is great for that) and scroll down or just search for "hairType" (no quote marks). Right after that there should be a name of your character's hairstyle eg. male23 or male8. I only did it on male human character but it should be similar with others.
4. Launch Starbound and create new character with the type of hairstyle you want on your main char (and some easy to remember name). Start a new game with it and then save and quit. Go back to your player folder. There should be a new .player file on top. Open it and search for the name of your second character. If you find it, then that's his file. Search for "hairType", copy the name of the new hairstyle and then past it in to your main character's file (swaping old chairstyle name for this new one).
5. Save your main file and launch Starbound. Load your main character and check out his new, fabulous hairstyle. c:

I don't know if .player editing is a common knowledge here or not but maybe this will help someone in the future.

With this method you should also be able to edit other aspects of your character, like their personality (stance), skin/hair colours, your inventory and so on. But I haven't played with that yet, so I won't be of much help here.

Have a great day.

SHIT SHIT SHIT, I have a novakid, and I went to the file, and to test if this worked, I went to hairType and saw the only thing after that was a 12, so I assumed that was what it was, so to test if it worked i changed it to 11 and then went to starbound to see if it worked, and now my character is GONE. Help?

Can this be used to change the colour of the default pet on your ship when you start. I've remade the character about 15 times and keep getting the 4 same colours.
