What do you need help with? I works fine

I need help because you know all those scenes with the person that has the arms that are on the left and right side well i want arms and legs like that but i just cant do it i want to make a really really good ragdoll for everyone to enjoy but i cant

Do you need limiters so that the joints can only be moved to a specific extend, for example in the elbow or the knee?

i want a person that can move there arms to and certain extend yes can you help me?

You have to build limiters. Let's look at the knee for example:
You need one part on the upper part of the leg that collides with the lower part and makes it impossible for the knee to move any further. Basically this is exactly how a joint in your body works as well. You can only extend your arm until it is straight because the two bones that make the joint collide.
Look at my ragdolls. There are many limiters in use for the hips, the knees, the elbows, the hands, the feet and the head. It is hard to explain it in words, but once you see it it will be easy. If it is unclear just ask me and I will see whether I can give you a basic example of a limiter.

ok i will look at your things ty a lot

I just found an other ragdoll that uses a very neat limiter system to simulate a spine and it also shows very clearly how limiters for joints like the elbow can be done.
