Repackaging Corpses

I'd like to suggest allowing corpses to be repackaged like other items.

I don't see why this can't be RPed as in repacking means they are "prepared for burial", or creamated or something. Perhaps a fee could be imposed for repackaging them, and it could only be done at a med center.

My container I aggregate them in at Jita IV has around 1,000, and sometime I worry that I get more lag there because of it. I like to keep them as trophies, and have successfully auctioned some off, one for over 100M to a specific FW corporation.

i don't see what the point would be, unless you're trying to get them to stack, which doens't make sense unless they become generic corpses rather than actual trophies of people you've killed.

May I introduce a module design I submitted in the mobile structures thread?

https://forums.eveonline.com/default.aspx?g=posts&m=4148103#post4148103

Biointelligence Vampiric Nosferatu Array:
================================

Input: 1 corpse
Input: 1 POS fuel block
Output: 1000sp to the toon that placed the corpse in the recycling array.
Effects: -1000sp to the toon whose corpse was devoured
Corpse is converted to food.

Restrictions:
Will only work if the victim has more SP than the user.

Note:
Abuse of this module to transfer from one friendly toon to another is permitted, as doing so will drain ISK during the replacement of clone upgrades. There is no net benefit in terms of SP so there is no possibility of an exploit.

Effects on Gameplay:
=================

Whereas now, scooping someone's frozen corpse is merely a symbolic gesture of dominance, this module will make it more important for defenders to recover corpses of team-mates, and incentivise attackers to scoop clones mid fight as they are a now valuable resource which can be donated to newer members of the corp to push their skills envelope.

Embers Children is recruiting carefully selected pilots who like wormholes, green killboards and the sweet taste of tears. You can convo me in game or join the chat "TOHA Lounge".

This is the reason we can't have a "Storage Wars - Jita". Too many horrifying finds.

If you repackage them they will cease to be unique as far as the server/database is concerned and you will therefore have no reason to hold on to them at all because they'll be "Male/Female Corpe" 1-1000 instead of "Corpse of Soul Crushing Lag"

I'm right behind you
