📋 About This Mod

Hotkey to pop any NPC's head regardless of their state. Works on alive, unconscious, defeated, and dead enemies.

Pop heads on demand. Press a hotkey while looking at any NPC to trigger a head dismemberment effect. Works on alive enemies, unconscious bodies, defeated targets, and dead corpses. No quickhack menu, no scanner, no prereqs.

Uses a custom ForceDismembermentEffector applied through a TweakXL status effect, triggered via a REDscript helper called from CET. Completely bypasses the game's quickhack targeting restrictions and scanner state checks.

Inspired by the Head Popper mod by Mocarniejszy (SoundWAV). Works great alongside GoreRunner for maximum carnage.

━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━

⬡ How it works ⬡

Look at any NPC and press F3 (rebindable in CET hotkey menu under "HeadPopAnyone"). If the target is alive or unconscious, the mod kills them first, then applies head dismemberment. If already dead, it pops immediately.
