Yo.

At Snavirn Forest south, Spanish Island, inside the "Taberna" building, there are two characters who have been dragging a corpse for a whole Cantr year, but the project is stuck at 92%.

They probably need a third person to complete the task. Dragging doesn't process regularly; it happens when there's enough people to drag. Sometimes it takes one, sometimes two, sometimes three or four people, depending on how strong each one is.

A whole year? Wow, you guys are really resilient. But wasn't it said in several places that corpses lose weight as they age? That should make the project process slowly.

Not if the percentage of pulling doesn't update except when you start pulling.. I'm not sure if it does or not. They do lose weight as they age.

They do indeed lose weight very slowly but dragging success is calculated when some one joins the project so unless someone else does join the body will rot away before it's moved.

Can bodies actually rot away, or do they just get down to 0 weight? If they actually disappear, then I will be needing to reiterate some of the old embalming suggestions :wink:

Rot away, both outside and inside a building/vehicle?

Yes as does any object which has deterioration

Then I think they should say old and crumbling to give some sort of a warning they're gonna fall apart. Isn't there a way of entering a custom description for used/often-used, or having it skip those stages and go straight to old?

Solved, btw. Got a third helper.
