Post subject:  How to create a full face helmet without killing the actor?
Basically, I have an actor that I wish to add a full-face helmet too (A Combine Soldier from the CMB Revisited Mod), I want to create a helmet that covers the entire head, and at the same time stops bullets from hitting his head, but whenever I set the mass of the helmet to zero, bullets pass right through it, and when I set it to more than zero, (basically any number), it stops bullets but when broken, the actor dies as well. Is there any way to fix this?

This means the JointStiffness variable on your helmet is too high.

look for that variable in the code and play around with it. Be careful though, set it too high and scary things happen when the helmet breaks.

What happens when the jointstiffness is too low, and what does jointstiffness do for legs and arms?

I tried what you said, and the combine's head no longer explodes upon helmet termination, but now it just falls over dead instead, head intact.

What's the BreakWound for the helmet?

Ah, I fixed the issue. I simply set the breakwound to "Null Emitter". Thanks for your help!
