I don't think you can change this order without hacking the code, which will be impacted by every update.
By the way, I think you should seriously consider an update of your version. We are at 3.17.8+190722 now, your's is from February 2018, so basically almost 1,5 years old. There have been man updates in the meanwhile (of course an update will NOT solve your current issue).

Provide your LS version and where it is installed (own server, uni/employer, SaaS hosting, etc.).
Always provide a LSS file (not LSQ or LSG).
