[B42] Pickup Corpse

Description
This mod brings back the option to pickup corpses again in build 42. Also allows it to be put into the trunk of a vehicle or other container.

Transfer
To put the corpse into a container you have to select the destination container, and then in your inventory scroll down to the corpse item.
Then right click it and select the option to "Put in Container (%container_name%)"
If you want to put it on a car seat or trunk make sure the door is open first. (Trunk opens with E key, for seats use the open door option under the V key radial menu.)

Note
I found a fix for the disappearance of a corpse when trying to grapple it after having it picked up previously.
Which means you can use the grapple function again even after having picked it up before.
Though it also means the corpse has to be reanimate for a really short time, I did not encounter any side effects of this so far but please be warned.

Disclaimer
This is a quick and dirty mod just for the time until the devs bring back an option to put a corpse into the trunk of a car.
Though I try my best to make it working for the time.
If you encounter any bugs please share them here and I'll check if there is an easy fix.

Recommended in combination with the mod [B42] Drag Bodies Faster

Thank you for this mod. A thing to note for those that it's not working for, the option to pull corpse is still there so you may just not have noticed the pickup corpse option lower down.

Funny thing about this is the fact your character seems to think it's a new zombie each time you drop one.... might give my character a heart attack if I pick up too many.
Thank zombie jesus this mod exists, the fact that I have to manually drag heavy ass corpses around without the option of filling up a trolley or car instead is just ludicrous.

You rule!

Does this mean we can load corpses into composters?

Confirming what inhearts says. Loaded the mod up in the newest build and it works fine, now I can load my trailer with corpses!

A reminder, everyone, you can't select Continue from main menu and expect your newly installed and enabled mod to be in the save file already. PZ does not re-initialize mods for previously created save files. You MUST click Load and then Choose Mods for that individual save file. Enabling a mod from the main menu only affects new save files.

AFAIK, it is 100% safe to enable this mod on previously created save files, but you must follow the steps above. Don't waste the author's time.

Sadly I'm currently not able to do any deep dive into debugging or enhancing this mod. A quick test didn't brought any errors and the menu option was still available for me, which mean I would need to invest much more time than I have, to figure out why some aren't getting the option.

I'm sorry guys.

is there any other mods that can pick up corpses, if this one does't work anymore?

As of right now the mod does not work and the last update was in January, I don't think this mod is getting an update anytime soon.
