How to prevent impulses/force from launching characters?

Development Character & Animation

I have set a relatively high impulse/force for my gun’s bullet impacts so that the characters being shot at can react with physical animations and destructibles break apart the way I want them to. The only issue now is that shooting the legs causes the characters to be launched into the air since the impulse amount is pretty much a small explosion. How can I keep my bullet impact impulses the way they are and not fling my characters into the air?

All my characters have physical animations and Set All Bodies Below Simulate Physics applied on Spine_01 and its child bones (everything above the torso) if that matters.

Thanks!

you could increase their gravity scale or mass that might work. dont know how it would affect your other systems though. actually its probably not the greatest idea haha.

Hallelujah! I figured it out immediately after I posted my question.

Inside the Details panel and under the Physics section, you can turn on Ignore Radial Impulses/Forces. I did this for my characters’ Capsule component and it stopped them from being launched.
