Make the Maldacht a More Cursed Race

Description
Ever wondered why the Maldacht look so...tame? Ever wanted them to look more like the parasitized humans they are? So did I. So I made a reskin.

This Maldacht reskin increases the parasite coverage across the Maldacht's body, gives them a cool claw hand, and even a little parasite tail. (Which you can't really see all too well most of the time, but ah well.)
Also resprites a few weapons, adds the tail to the tech upgrade menu, and recolors the teleport beam/mechpod to match the aesthetic. Custom SAIL planned.

Known issues:
- Doesn't work with tail cosmetics (obviously I can't really fix this)
- Highlights on cutebound hair are miscolored (I vaguely understand how to fix this but will probably need to pull apart another mod to figure out all the hex codes I need to add and change)

Based on the original Cutebound sprites (if that wasn't already obvious). Maldacht by アルカナ ∅.

It's kind of already a cute Maldacht mod, but also, no, generally full-character reskins won't be compatible with other full-character reskins lol

Is this mod compatible with the cute Maldacht mods?

@Noche unfathomably based

You know, I think the fact that Frackin' Universe is not a compatibility requirement here should answer that question for you. Snark aside, though, no, Maldacht are standalone and not connected to FU. I hate FU and will never make anything that connects to or requires it :steamthumbsup:

@Noche is the Maldacht a FU or normal starbound race?

@Noche Oh alright I understand. This mod is still very cool and you did a very good job :)

No, that's not possible due to the limitations of the engine :( I'd love to be able to do that, but I can't.

Hi, your work is very cool! I was just thinking, is it possible to make it so that the unaffected part of the race (the normal arm one) is the side that is shown when the character turns around? So basically, when the character is looking to the right, the sprite is just as it is right now, and when the character looks to the left, we get to see the other side of the character, instead of it mirroring itself. I just that would be really cool and I felt like suggesting it :)

I have just realized that this is "broken" for me because I generally keep local copies of my mods and don't subscribe to them...and I recently had to hard-reinstall Starbound, which wiped my local copies. Whoops! Thank goodness I had backups...
