So I'm trying to work on making another of my files breedable, so I can upload it and whatnot...but I've only done variations once, so I'm struggling with that. I was actually pretty proud of myself! I wrote very clear, easy to follow notes from last time, and I have the paintballs and eyelid colors successfully moving between two different variations!
But for some reason, even though I believe they are labeled correctly, the main coat color and eye color will stick as the last version I made and won't go back and forth between the two currently in the file. :\
For example, when I made it brown with green eyes, then made a gold with blue eyes...the brown one worked until I made the gold. Now it's stuck as gold. If I switch it to brown, it sticks as brown. I don't know why it won't use both. Again, especially when the eyelids and paintballs are switching correctly.

Currently I'm stuck with the gold, blue-eyed version.
This is how my Color Info Override section looks (for some reason the actual title of this section keeps disappearing in my quote...) :

##And to not spam you with my Paintballs, here's a smaller list to compare how things are labeled...the eyelids:
To make these, I made the original brown one normally in Pet Workshop. Then I edited it to gold, allowing PW to save the color changes to Color Info Override, and labeled the differences in all the correct spots.
I'm not sure if I'm doing this right...does this even make sense? xD Any help would be appreciated!!
---
EDIT: I've now somehow managed to completely reverse the problem...now the coat color is switching correctly but the eyelid colors and paintballs aren't working right...then again, neither are the eyes...
---
Last Edit: Okay, I switched around so many things, I found where to add new variation parts in PW, but now they seem to mix and match things...for example, my paintballs for a brown dog show on both colors (which I don't want) and eyes still refuse to change anymore, but the coat colors and paintballs and eyelids will, and just...it's all a random mess, despite being coded the same in LNZPro. :\ I don't know what to even try anymore.
---
OMG NO WAY. I forgot about silverfish's hexing videos!! I went to see if there was one on variations, and checked out the first of two...and the tricks seen in this video helped me solve my problems!!
THANK YOU, SILVERFISH!!!
