    Hi! If you're reading this, then have my thanks for helping a feeble non-coder do a bit of Starbound modding. I'm attempting to do a simple cosmetic mod: create versions of the higher-tier Novakid head armour with the mask/helmet portions removed, leaving just the hat. I'm up to the point where I have the hats properly spawning in-game, but the when worn, the hair and facial features of the wearer disappear as well. Any idea what's causing this?

    Have you changed mask.png? It's a png that covers the characters face to prevent clipping by obscuring certain elements like the Avian beak or the Novakid brand.

    Thank you! It's working out now. I figured that the mask should be transparent, but I guess it's the other way around. Huh.
