Dragging Corpses

[Bullet_Magnate]

As an alternative to carrying (mainly with lower-strength characters in mind), maybe dragging corpses (requiring less strength but substantially slowing movement) could be an option.  

 

To take  it a step further, dragging could be facilitated with a tarp -- roll a corpse or two onto the tarp, and drag the tarp along with the corpses on it.  Maybe that's getting too overly-detailed to be practically implementable, but basic dragging (above) seems like it should / could be a thing.  

 

(As an aside, moving *other players* around by dragging might eventually be something to consider, if the damage / injury mechanics are ever expanded to include players being knocked unconscious or rendered immobile by wounds.)

You can bundle logs together with regular or sheet ropes to lower their weight, so facilitating a mechanic that reduces corvpse weight shouldn't be too out there.

 

Maybe force the player to still carry the corpse with both hands, just allow another body to the mix?

 

Drag more of them at a time, and fill up your cars seats, trunk, trailer faster, then dump em on your buddy's front lawn.

 

Can't recall how much a corpse weight in game, or what the storage capacity of a glove box is, but maybe even cram one in the glove box? There was a point in time where you could stuff a fridge in a fridge.

Am I the only one finding this thought somewhat disturbing...?!

Cremation and an ash tray is all you really need.

 

Digression: it's the early 90s, why don't these cars have built in cigarette lighters?

If you manage to cremate a corpse with just a car cigarette lighter, I will be disturbed and impressed in equal measure 

[Papa Juliet Whiskey]

Nah. Just using the ashtray as a storage receptical.

 

I just get annoyed when I find a bunch of cigarettes but no lighter.

 

Although, with an adequate application of gasoline, I'm sure one of those metal coil style car lighters could get the job done.

 

Ya may need a broom and dustpan though.

Alien 4 resurection. Actor play a character with no working legs so his mate rope him to his back.

Ah. I did see that one once, many moons ago.

 

I didn't remember any of it. Too much hippie lettuce, perhaps.
