I have a World in Rimworld that has gone beyond cycle 10, the problem is, what do I do with all the dead bodies?! I have 80 graves full! I don't know what to do, or if I can do anything. Please help.[/b][/b]

Haul the corpses onto dump sites or into graves. Draft a few colonists and equip them with molotovs. Now set fire to the bodies.

or use blast charges and blow them up.
you can sell the dump sites and place the bomb in the middle. just make sure to forbid them before doing that.
Whatever you do, don't do it!

Yeah, as of now there really isn't a very viable way to deal with long-term corpse build up. Half a map of graves is silly. I mean, getting them cleaned up and out of the way is easy. Just a simple hauling priority. But mass graves is silly.

Personally I think actual graves should be limited to colonists and raider corpses should be burned or eaten by wolves or something.
Reticulating all the splines.

Why spend the extra metal on blasting charges? Just use frag grenades to clear corpses :D. I hear that's equally as effective.

Frag nades for Rubble/dump areas.
Molotov's for graves.

Stick with this & you'll clear stuff up easily. :)

Personally, slag/rubble are too useful to dispose of.

They are like free sandbags with no upkeep! And movable!

yep, rubble is awesome

nades clear bodies quicker than molotovs if its raining and you keep your guy tossing them. However, keep throwing molotovs and the graves will catch alight and spread, setting the whole gravesite alight without the need of someone staying there to throw.

They should rot and make people very upset to be near the smell.

I wish I could like this so many times. It made me spit out my coffee :P
I believe in magic because it's the only way to explain how fitted sheets get folded.

We need a kitchen and then we call the food "Soylent green"! :-D

Edit: Upps, somebody was faster with this idea. ;-)

The bit on disposing of bodies with fire should be like, an automatic "tip" given in-game when someone gets a molotov cocktail. Cause so few people know about it.
Why to people worry about following their heart? Its lodged in your chest, you won't accidentally leave it behind.
