Butcher Corpses

Description
This mod lets you butcher corpses. You can use the flesh for compost.. and if you're willing to abandon your humanity, something else. I definitely wouldn't recommend eating it raw though.. Honestly I wouldn't recommend eating it cooked either. But of the two options I'd definitely go with cooked if you wanna continue living.

Multiplayer compatible

The default sandbox settings are mainly for backwards compatibility, for the most balanced experience I recommend enabling zombie infection + food sickness for raw corpse meat and food sickness only for cooked corpse meat!

Got an idea for Butcher Corpses and know how to implement it? Well have I got the thing for you: https://github.com/An77777777/Butcher-Corpses

@Autumn depending on how complicated it is, probably sometime after 42 gets to the main branch

Any plans for a B42 update, maybe including tie-ins to the new butchering mechanics? Ran into a composter early on in one run and the moment my yard started getting full I thought of grabbing a mod like this lol.

I'm not sure hot to add a comment to the github as per the mod description, so failing that I'm asking here. Is there any plan to and/or would you make it so that we can use the meat as an ingredient? Currently you can't use it in things like soups, stews, salads, etc. It would also be cool to be able to make soap out of them (like in Fight Club lol). Anyway, appreciate the mod and thanks a bunch. ♥

@Yato thanks for sharing your struggle! Yeah, the number is solely used to download and update the mod on the server, the "Loading mod ID" tells your client what mods it should actually start. I assume this bit was removed from the description by mistake.

Ok ! I’ve fixed the problem. This was not from the ID workshop, it is "2816263599" as on github but of the Mod name which was not "Butcher Corpses" nor "Butcher corpses" but it was "ButCor". I was able to test the mod and it works wonderfully thank you for this nugget!
Please, to facilitate the implementation of your mod for dedicated server, put the ID Workshop and the ID name in your description like other mods available on the workshop

The mod isn't working for me on my dedicated server. Is there an incompatibility with other mods or something like that? My server has automatically downloaded the mod, and I've checked the mod folder, but it’s still not usable in-game. I've tried carrying the body and even placing it directly on the ground, but it doesn't work. :/

I've also tried to carry the corpse and see if the crafting window would pop up, but it doesn't. I don’t have the recipe in my crafting options. Do I need to read a magazine or have a certain skill for that?

PS : Like every mods can you write the ID mod and the ID workshop in your description ? please (I dont need it anymore because I checked it in the git hub but im talking for other people interested in your mod)

@Caistrophytum if you have a valid knife or axe, you can butcher a corpse in your inventory by simply looting it from the vicinity and right clicking it in your bag. If the option does not show up, check your crafting menu for the Butcher Corpse recipe to see what is missing.
Alternatively you can now also just right click a corpse in the world while you have a valid tool for the recipe mentioned above in your bags and select the "Butcher Corpse for Flesh" option.

appetising

How can I place the corpse in my inventory? You can only grab it... When I grab it and have my butcher's knife nothing happens.

@An Will you update your mod with an idea from "MassCraxx"?
