    Title: Corpse remain when looting after changing zones.
    Reproduction Rate: 50% / 50%
    Blocker? N/A
    Details: NPS corpses remain after being looted.
    Steps to Reproduce: This is hard to reproduced but I have done so 3 times today, I have seen this is other zones too, but here is where i can produce it the most.. So here goes
    1st, mine like a miner :) once you are over weight, kill the guy at the entrance or anywhere but do not loot the corpse, exit the mine.
    2nd, Run to the nearest town in this case it is refugees haven, run to the bank and wait 2 minutes or drop of the ore/blocks/loot
    3rd, run back to the mine, when you enter the mine buff up and loot the corpses. Once the corpse is looted it will remain for the rest of the day (playing havoc with the dead body investigation feature as its grouping skeletons together) (Could also be an advantage to draw away or manipulate the area)

    I was not able to reproduce this by exiting the mine and then going back into the mine. it seems to only work if i actually go to refugees haven. I assume this may have something to do with garbage collection timer, as sometimes i can loot the very last kill. (killed 3, 2 remained 1 vanished)
    (now have 5 corpses that wont vanish)

    I am not 100% sure (this is why its in critical issue section), but i do not think this is effecting the spawn of the NPCs, they seem to spawn the same. (so it is not in effect allowing me to mine the area without interruption). Spawn have changed this release for the better i might add, so cant be sure.
