Attach Gas Masket & Night Vision Googles to helmet

Does this feature exist like in 1.13, or do I really have to decide?

I just have all of my mercs carry around a gas mask for when they need them, going through the process of putting them all on makes it feel cool.

But no, game specifically points out that you cannot attach them to helmets. Gasmasks have about the same stats as a light helmet, so its not too bad. The NVG though don't give bonuses, so you have a con with them.

Like jaki201 I also have those utility helmets in the backpacks and equip them if the need arises. For the night vision I mostly try to have mercs with the night vision perk (don't recall it's exact name) to counter the need of having 6 googles with me all the time. (and to not loose the protection)

To do that they need to create JA2 inventory system. Gas mask should be a separate slot from the helmet. But give severe penalties to spotting and some to accuracy. And drain stamina, which does not exist in JA3.

Agreed. RE stamina - there is "energy" (also some / one ability which drains said resource - AFAIK Smileys special attack...?)
