These guys are new to me since the last time I played, so IDK what’s up. I have a dead one just chilling in my freezer and nobody will do anything with it. It’s not counting as a corpse? When trying to force it at the butcher or creamtorium, it says no corpse available; but they did stick him in the corpse pile.

I am using the Alien Races and Anthro Race mods, which might be fucking things up, but this is a default race, and even with the xeno ideology additions, my colony is set to not GAF about eating people (human or alien); not to mention they’d burn or bury it anyway, just because it’s a corpse that isn’t one of us. Not sure how to dispose of this fuzzbutt and stop the negative thoughts upon seeing him while grabbing some chow.

Edit: He weighs too much! IDK how the hell they carried him to the freezer in the first place though… He weighs 60kg, and the maximum anyone can carry is 34kg. :/

Edit 2: Even though I had already tried this, setting my crematorium to allow everything then forcing them to cremate bodies worked just now. Doing the same thing with the butcher table didn’t, and I had already tried this last night with both before I made the post and it wasn’t working… Ugh… 😮‍💨

    I’d say double check your bills (target/range), and that the body is allowed and not out of your pawns’ allowed area (if nothing works regarding that body, I suspect something like that).

    If everything is set as it should, I can’t think of anything except weird mod interaction. Vanilla is not supposed to treat xenotypes differently for these purposes.

    Oh, maybe try to draft a pawn and see if you can force them to carry the body. Drafted commands override usual limitations.

    I don’t know anything about those race mods but i had a similar problem. I don’t think the Yttakin gene is related to the issue. They’re a type of human, like the other biotech races. I would check the storage filters on the freezer- if it disallows rotten human corpses, the stockpile won’t count the rotten corpse even if it allows fresh ones.

    The second thing I would check would be the bill details for cremating corpses. The rotting stranger might not meet the filter for the bill’s ingredients.

    Hope this helps! Good luck!
