Helm bug

There is something wrong with head protection. If in my previous mods the protection was halved, in Horror mod it doesnt affect the protection rating at all. In fact even with head protection at 0 the total protection is the same as body protection.

Would you mind posting a screenshot of the protection screen of the bugged unit? The armor's and helmet's prot values would be nice to have as well.

and

I used regular "Half Helmet", "Leather Cuirass" and "Plate Hauberk" for the demonstration.

That's very strange. It seems as if the creature is totally headless! I wonder if the equipment slots affect body structure in other ways as well...

Yup the unit doesnt have a head slot. So if I remove an item slot then the item equipped doesnt work? What about weapons without hand slots?

I don't know, that was just a guess. Some weapons work without hands, that much I do know. They might have to be defined as #bonus, but that shouldn't matter. Hmm.

Well, at the risk of being rude, "duh!" Sheesh - you think the helmet is going onto the unit's second head?

Hard to tell

So I cant give a unit specialized unremovable armor? I checked, and the non bonus weapons without hand slots still work. Like Guardian in Nephilim mod still banishes opponents even though he has no hands. And Ruah armor works even though units dont have body slots (I think it works as a shield, because like helm it doesnt give protection boni).

Now this is definitely a bug. When I gave the unit the head slot back the protection on the helm was halved again.
