It's not detected. Either someone else moved it or then there is enough room to enter.

Bodies are -only- moved out of vehicles, right? I sure hope so...

Does boat count as a vehicle...?
There's an unaccesable sloop called Botija`s Nightmare on the sea. Could someone give it a look?

Depends. Is it docked to your characters boat or did you dock to it? It doesn't work if you docked to it.

It's just there, on the sea, there may be someone on a dinghy docked to it though. I've tried to get on it several times, but it was impossible.

Well, if it's just there then it doesn't work. Seko told me that Jos needs to fix stuff first or something, when I asked if she could move the body off some boat in the sea.

Prepare to be disappointed. I'm pretty sure dead bodies on boats are not moved. So if you can't get on while dropping everything you're carrying then you'll have to wait until the body has rotted enough to allow you on.

Yeah, can't move bodies out of floating/sailing boats or vehicles on the road. Bodies can also be moved out of buildings and cabins just as long as there's not enough room for a person to enter. If there is enough room then the body being too heavy for one person is not a valid excuse.

Woah, you got two bodies in there? No questions asked. And yes, you only need to report the name of the location the bodies are in, where your character is is irrelevant.

If a deterioration value of 20 means that it loses 20 grams of weight a day, it's going to take over 400 days before that sloop becomes accessible.

Could it not rather be 20 points per day of 10000? That would fit better to the general principles behind rot and repair. Do corpses vanish after 25 years?

(If a body of 60 kg would only loose 20 grams per day, there couldn't have vanished a body in the history of Cantr.)
Pretty in pink.
