So paprka suggested that we:
just open up human_face or whatever, all the hair sprites are in there. I'd really like a team of people with sprite knowledge to go through and spruce them up, maybe make them more uniform and organized.
I agree totally that's why I'm learning how the hair system works, after a few hours tinkering with it I kind of got it.

Kind of.
Anyway here's my first design for an alternative of pigtails.

So yeah let's get spiriting some shitty hair for our waifus and husbandos.
(pls don't let male hairs go unnoticed it's cool having a gazillion female hairs but give our penis wielding spacemens some love too.)

Males don't need hair because all males should be bald/buzzed like true astronauts

Thats rather good, the view from the back looks rather bland to me...

Can we please get the shaved things as default choices?
To prevent my confusion, the things you get from using the razor...

so wait up what's the max height of hair.
like i'm getting an ERROR message every time i take the hairstyle into the game so I'm guessing i've gone over a unspecified limit or something.
also how to get that test model without going into the game????????????????????????

when i wrote that i was really tired and i didn't think.
i knew there's hairs that go up instead of down (beehive etc) but yesterday i didn't remember them.
So i dunno what's wrong with my sprite that means the game just doesn't show it in game ;_;

I've already made another hair sprite that worked fine. It's just this one that is fucking up and I have no idea why

Yes I put the hair in sprite accessories and I go to the character setup and click the hair and it has a big error message.

You've probably fixed this by now but...

the icon_state variable in the hair datum is correct. However your icon_states in the dmi are incorrect. The standing version of the hair needs "_s" at the end, and the laying down version needs "_l".

Basically the game adds these to the icon_state variable found in the hair datum when applying them to the mob. It does it this way so that you don't have to type in two different icon_states in the hair datum.

Since there is no "hair_doublepig_s" or "hair_doublepig_l" icon_state in the dmi, it is returning the "" (null) icon_state....which is that error sprite

"_l" is no longer required due to Byond 500 matrix rotations, but yeah, "_s" IS needed.

Sorry, I was basing that on our codebase, which forked from TG like a year ago or something.

May you give some ingame screenshots? It is hard to make out the details when you have greyscale against a white background.
