    I'm currently using race mods with alternative eye styles as a choice. One of the problems in this is that it makes using emoticons such as blinking impossible or so I've experienced. My boyfriend and I spent a great deal of time trying to make blinking animations, but because of the layer system Starbound uses, the eyes added as part of character customization were overtop of the emoticons, which meant that when the race did blink the eyes covered any animations. This is also true for animations with the mouth, etc..

    Is there any chance we can make the emoticons the layer with the highest priority so we can add unique eye choices to the various races? Any eyes that are not part of the actual head frame are considered higher priority. I don't know if there's any files I can edit to give priority to the emoticons, but I'd sure love to know.
