Body stick

When I attempted to ressurect a bandit defeated by another I grabbed his corpse and took to my shack. I attempted to heal him and my char healed the bandit while he was still being grabbed. When I attempted to let him loose he would not and he stuck inside my character's body.
Now my character looks like a mutant freak by having a dead bandit body inside him and he will not unstick from me, no matter what I do. I can still click the bandit's body and issue the command to drop it on the ground but nothing happens.
Perhaps this is worth taking some time to investigate as it was my first "body grab" attempt in the game.
Aside this pesky little bug, loving the game!

Not gonna lie, i actually love bugs like this because they're so damn funny. Sorry to hear about this, but i'll try and get it to glitch for me too and see if i cant support you in between my fits of laughter. Try and give more info on how to recreate this scenario if you can. There's a guide to reporting bugs you should check out.

Must be funny

Maybe I make squad full of mutants like that. Story of the 3 workers in fukushima who were the only ones to be exposed to big amounts of radiation.

Maybe I figure out the names of the workers and name my squad after them.
Can you put a picture here as well?
PS. Hope I'm not making anyone feel bad. I'm no bad person... My humor just might be sick and rotten to the core.

Well...it sure is hell of funny! Having a bandit body inside of you and being able to do everything you've been doing must be awesome! It happened as I said, I just grabbed a desert bandit body, carried him to my shack and tried to drop him then he got stuck inside me. This bug/glitch continued on for another 2 saves and when I loaded it again the body just dissapeared!
Funny as hell though...

Today as I was playing Kenshi I noticed something that might be interesting.
When someone has the left or right arm seriously damaged ( 0 or less than 0 arm condition) the arm becomes very glitchy and starts to stick into any body part, including backpacks.
I noticed that when I tried to grab someone with my left arm ruined the grabbed body would become very glitchy too, like when the problem on this post happened, I carried the body to my small shack and dropped it but it didn't stick to my body this time.
But it sure as hell was weird to see that body shacking like a raging mutant while being carried by my ruined left arm.
You should be able to carry bodies with the arm that is available at the moment.
By default I know it's the left arm, but when it becomes damaged or ruined it should go to the right arm.
And when both arms are ruined there shouldn't be the possibility to carry anyone at all.

I agree with you on the last part, as for the glitchy crap I couldn't help you, but the PhysX engine Chris is using right now is kind of silly at times. At least it's not randomly crashing or anything and you just have weird crap happening. Maybe you should put the part about where you shouldn't be able to carry people with two messed up arms in the "Suggestion" forums. I think it would get attention quickly

In regards to the physics, ive looked over and seen a dude launched out of a battle like from a catapult. It was hilarious lol, I also found a box of food that randomly shot out of the sand near Shark. I wish i could assimilate bandits into my characters being...absorb them for power!!
