Blink Issues

Hello!

I am trying to troubleshoot an issue with the blink effect on my puppet. My puppet is simple with only one forward facing direction, but I have several different emotions that are triggered by key presses. Each emotion has a different mouth set and eye set to go with them, but for some reason the blinks don't work for the alternate eye sets (regular set works fine). I've made sure to tag each of the blinks and alternate eyes in the rigging tag panel. Below is a photo of the grouping structure. Can anyone tell me what could be going wrong with this? Thanks in advance!

    I believe for every extra set of eyes you have, you'll want to add an additional Face behavior to them to get them recognized. Face by default only looks for the first instances of left & right eye, eyeball, pupil and blink - so to add more you would need a new Face behavior for every set of 2. So I think adding Face behaviors to your sad, mad, and surprised groups should fix it...
