So let's say you wanted a creature with an armored body but that's it. No armor on the head or limbs, but an armored body. Presumably it would use PLUS_TISSUE_LAYER, but how do you go about doing this?

[TISSUE_LAYER:BY_CATEGORY:UPPERBODY:ARMOR] should do the trick. You can also modify any tissue layer tokens, like [TL_RELATIVE_THICKNESS:3] under it in a similar way as when you define materials and tissues.

Alternately, you can select the skin tissue layer on the upper body: [SELECT_TISSUE_LAYER:SKIN:BY_CATEGORY:UPPERBODY] and use [LAYER_TISSUE:ARMOR] to change skin to metal.

Thanks for the help! Right now I'm trying to create a creature with a thick shell over it's body, but not over much else.

Actually, it didn't work.

Presumably BY_CATEGORY:UPPERBODY refers to the category of the body part, so BASIC_1PARTBODY should work if I change it too BY_CATEGORY:BODY. So the following chunk of code should work:

Code: [Select]

[TISSUE_LAYER:BY_CATEGORY:BODY:SHELL]Right? Because I inserted it and it didn't drop a shell.
