How to handle dead bodies? | 'Freezing' ragdolls for performance?

so I have a workaround … instead of creating a poseable mesh I do this in my enemy BP … save pose snapshot > set bool variable(freeze) > set all bodies simulate physics(off). Then in my animation BP just pass in the freeze bloolean and use that to change my state. Inside the state just use a pose snapshot with the same name as set in my enemy BP. Not sure how efficient but seems to work fine.

This sounds like a really clever approach, craigBeads. Could you post a screenshot of your blueprint setup?
