Bodies Piling Up

I am running the newest snapshot (2009-03-28 04:21 ) in windows xp with si fixes. In the furnace and around Monitor when I kill guys and walk off screen (even go far far away) and come back the bodies are still there. It is mainly happening to me with trolls and goblins. I dont remember that from playing years ago. Anyone else see bodies not decaying?

Some goblins and trolls are full-blown NPCs in SI: as such, they do not have the 'temporary' flag set and neither do their bodies; this also happens in the original BG and SI for any full-blown NPCs and such 'monster' NPCs. This is not a bug in Exult, but the failing memory of the people playing it :-p

Well, to be fair, I have noticed that bodies sometimes become permanent if you move them. Try dragging a bear corpse or something. It'll probably stay there.

I noticed this while hunting bears and wolves just west of the Knight's Test. They eventually killed me and when I went back there were still a couple of dead bears. I'd moved them to clear the battlefield since it's sometimes hard to find a path once the bodies pile up.
