You realize that over a short period of time the grave goes away by itself.  I just put my grave yards out of the colonists normal sight and no issues.

What? What version are you using?

I'm using .250, and I have never seen behavior like this. I've got so many bodies I've resorted to drafting a goodly portion of my militia and manually using grenades to blast the bone-hoard to get rid of the corpses.

I also have never experienced this either, if you know how to have this happen please let me know asap!

I just make a dumping area, fill it with bodies and set it on fire with Molotov cocktails. Corpses burn nicely, unless it's raining.

actually you CAN use Molotov's on corpses even when buried, which causes the grave to go from full to empty when it burns up, it even spreads to neighboring graves so you can clear out a whole cemetery with a few lobs. Then you can start filling it again!

Best way?

- place dump area
- put 2 blasting charge at left and right of it.
- fill up dump area.
- detonate

Love those Molotov's. But out of curiosity how self-perpetuating are uncontrolled fires? I've been reluctant to burn bodies and dumping zones for fear of wildfires spreading across the map.

Just do it in an area with no adjecent greenery, such as on the stone, and you'll have no problems of spreading fire.

I just started burning them bodies instead of blasting. The first attempt was when the graveyard was still adjacent to a build wall. While using the T9 rifle for a bit said wall caught fire :). Since then there is a concrete border around the graveyard.
