[Bug]Crippled Limb (Head)

[IceBox]

So I've came across a bug related to crippled limbs or rather my head.

 

Turns out my heads HP is at 0 (or maybe below, that could be the issue?) and I can't heal it by normal means.

 

After some crawling through console commands I've came up with a possible "solution":

 

There is a spell in FO4 that's called "Heal Limbs" (0005C52F) and I could theoretically cast it by using the "cast" command but it requires a source and I just can't figure out what parameter works.

 

Usage:

cast <magic item> <target> <source (optional>

 

Even though it says the source is optional not specifying one causes it to fail.

 

Edit: I've been able to cast it by using:

 

castimmediateonself 5C52F but that didn't fix my head...

 

Edit: I just spawned another deathclaw and had it whack away at me with TIM on and it seems it's basically the old decapitation "bug" where the enemy rips off your head but if for some reason you don't die to it you're basically headless. Now I've got no idea how to fix this, guess it's time to reroll...

 

Update:

 

I've been doing some more testing and been able to recreate the "headless" issue by healing just before a killmove sequence even without using TIM. If you somehow manage to pull that "feat" off twice you will end up permanently headless (head is actually missing not just in the pipboy)

Hi Icebox,

 

i am experiencing a very similar issue.

My characters both legs are crippled due to the same reasons you described (using a stimpack right before a killmove was executed)

as i was overencumbered and out of stimpacks i didn't notice my loss of legs untill after i (very slowly) got back to diamond city.

so reverting to an older save is no option.

i have so far managed to get the legs back (by going to the face editing doc and playing around a bit with the body settings)

however they are both still crippled.

i figured a reload of the entire body might do the trick so i tried the player.resurrect command.

This got rid of the crippled limbs and got my character up and running again.

with one major issue still remaining.....

The resurrect command appears to have given my character a perpetual walk trough everything (tcl).

which i cannot disable, also jumping no longer works.

 

Just thought it might be helpfull to share my findings, maybe there is a fix to be found.
