Setting entity health to zero doesnt work. Also ridiculous high amounts are not a good solution either.

Import the character as an animated entity.

If he gets damage, reset his health
Or always reset his health each loop

You haven't actually said what you want … Just someone that attacks that you cannot kill ?

Sorry, I just want a character that you can not kill. You shoot at him but nothing happens. I want to prevent the player from shooting important characters.

And this char should be such as:

1- he behaves like a soldier, so he can kill everybody but not one can kill him. So you has to modify script to make him as unkillable.
2- He behaves like a civilian, unarmed, he don't want to kill not one, but he want to walk, run, jump, speak with anothers chars, even with the player. So can attach him just some script than do so.
3- He do notjing so you can set him as static, and issue is fixed.

Note: If you decide to make it immortal, remember that there can be only be one. LOL

Backup your files: module_combatcore.lua and module_combatshoot.lua and replace them with those below.

@Wolf : your solution has the downside that the GG AI stuff is hard coded to only work on characters, so a lot of the AI scripts won't work with non-character entities.
Been there, done that, got all the T-Shirts!

I was under the impression he just wanted a character to stand there looping the idle animation, maybe I misread that though

What about a script attached to a Dynamic with a replace health to " Ifused " so it can be used on any character ?
Sounds do-able but im clueless

Fixed.
Just name all the unkillable such as: "soldier uk" without the quotes, of course.
In the vid just one soldier is unkillable.

Wolf was right

Then import him as an object and give him a script that just loops the idle animation.

Without scripting all I can think you can do really is make their health insanely high.

Another way is by using the old health > new health check and heal as a result. Make sure "strength" health is set to 10000

(not actual variables just saying in theory)
