Summary0003738: Night creatures with more/less than two eyes have two eyelids
DescriptionIn my current adventure I'm taking out night creatures, and I noticed a couple that were "three-eyed humanoids" or "one-eyed humanoids" but still had a right and left eyelid. The "three-eyed humanoids" had a left, right, and center eye but only a left and right eyelid, whereas the one-eyed humanoid has an "eye" and a right and left eyelid.
Steps To ReproduceFind a night creature and look at its description, then try to (A)im a shot and look at its body parts.
Additional InformationThis isn't a problem with cyclopes, just randomly generated creatures, apparently.

They all seem to use the RCP_EYELIDS bodypart, which includes left and right eyelids. I'm curious why eyelids aren't just done using [CON_CAT:EYE] - though it would attach the eyelid to the eye itself rather than the head, it probably wouldn't make that much difference overall (and it'd automatically scale to however many eyes the creature happens to have).

Looking at the raws, stranglers are probably also be affected by this.

That would cause them to just be "eyelid" instead of "left eyelid", right?
