Can't loot dead bodies, when they slide down a slope
Closed, ResolvedPublic

Description

I can't loot dead bodies, after they slided down a slope. Happened to me now 4 times. No problem looting a dead body, when they die on a flat surface. I think this has to do with the ragdoll system. This bug is now in for a long time, but it's really annoying.

Yeah that does suck a lot

friends told me relogging allwos you to access the body at the new position, but havn't tried that myself

Hi HaseDesTodes,

I tried that two times. As soon as I logged back in, I saw the body sliding down again from it's initial dying position. One time I tried until the body disappeared, but I couldn't loot it.

I also read, that you can loot the body, if you find the exact spot on the ground where it died, before sliding down. Tried that. Didn't work out for me.

Confirmed, dead bodies slide, zombies and players, indefinetly. Please fix.

This has happened to me too, I noticed the player had a like "low graphic clothing" after he stopped sliding and I could not loot him.
