[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

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.

i have an odd bug where if i try to pick up a corpse the game will freeze and then crash but with this i can pick up corpses just fine i think its the animation that is bugged for me

the corpses weigh 20 lbs so we cannot fit into trash can or throw out windows, please add these features as they are greatly needed

my damn character wont throw the corpses out of windows or over railings, just dropping them infront. Sometimes the corpses lie in a spot where i cant pick them up anymore because the walls are too close. Can you please add an option to the context menu to throw the damn corpses out of the window and over railings? I really dont have time to drag all the corpses of bateman tower into an elevator and then outside.

Thank you for making this. I lost a favorite character not too long and made a new one to go back, get the body and put her to rest. I was shocked to find you couldn't put bodies in trunks or any of that anymore.
