Make a new Item Flag?

[Toasticuss]

Hey guys, I've noticed in a few mods that there are custom flags that prevent unnecessary items from coming off with armor. Say you make a mask to cover a players face but you want to preserve the players hair, there isnt a flag to keep the hair on so a flag was made to keep the hair on with the mask on.

I'd like to do that and more with custom flags, I made some hand armor but I don't want to make a mesh for it because I want to just see the hands like normal and have hand armor.

Can someone please explain this?

I looked in the headers_items.py file and I can see all the flags and capabilities but they are all hex codes. Is there a way to make a hex code flag, or do I have no idea what I'm talking about.....

You cannot create a new flag because all the flags are hardcoded into the engine. The hexcode is just for referencing a specific flag. About these other mods, either they have a newer version of the module system that has that flag or they have created a work-around that accomplishes the task

There is a flag to keep hair (or maybe keeping hair is the default and removing it is the flag). There's one for beards too.

Where can I find such flags? The item_headers file doesnt have anything like that.

Oh wow thanks don't know how I missed that, so theres no way to make it not cover hands?

I just want to make some hand armor that shows the same hands as the player without making a new mesh for it.

Sadly, there isn't. You'll have to copy the hand model and model your hand armor over that.
