Hugger traps and eggs are pretty much the only a counter that a good scout has. While it would make sense for them to have anti-hug, I am denying this from a balance perspective. |

About the pull request
Gives the Scout's helmet innate face hugger protection, equilivant to other forms of anti-hug protection.
Explain why it's good for the game
The Scout, the single role in the Marine force who is literally built and themed around scouting a hostile area, is also someone who was never granted any form of hugger protection whilst another spec, the Grenadier, a spec who sits behind a murderball and fires grenades, is granted hugger protection?
If there is anyone in the USCM who would be given protection to resist a facehugger, it would be a Scout. This change gives the Scout some degree of leeway to avoid being infected, but it won't stop them being infected if they get grabbed and tossed into a hive of eggs.
